Framed/unframed
James Seow, a Malaysian-born London artist, works in various media, including print, photography, sculpture, and installation. He bridges traditional Eastern art and contemporary techniques, utilising digital methods and modern visual language. Since moving in the late 1990s, Seow has been shaped by the environmental changes in Malaysia, mainly deforestation and urban planning. This backdrop influences his work, which explores the relationship between nature and urban life. Seow is fascinated by parks and gardens as constructed environments that reflect nature's ephemeral qualities. His art examines how these spaces embody ideals of equality and harmony. Seow invites viewers to reflect on contemporary reality and their place within it by juxtaposing the natural and artificial and the rational with the instinctive. "Morning Mist" is crafted from photographs taken during his daily walks in London, capturing the allure of urban green spaces. This piece challenges conventional notions of gardens and landscapes, encouraging curiosity and wonder while prompting reflection on our relationship with urban environments. Seow’s work has been exhibited internationally and is in various private collections, including Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design, Royal College of Art, Brookfield Asset Management Inc., and the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts.
