Education
Yeung Cheng and Chung Cheng High School in Singapore.
Though a good student, he dropped out of school at 16 due to his poor grades in English. A teacher who recognized his talent encouraged him to join the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts where Cheong Soo Pieng was teaching. But Siew wanted to learn more about the meaning and purpose of art and life than merely how to paint.
Yeung Cheng and Chung Cheng High School in Singapore.
Though a good student, he dropped out of school at 16 due to his poor grades in English.
Apart from his fascination for human forms, vibrant tropical colours and artistic and cultural diversity of the region, he often shows a deeper concern for the social, cultural and environmental realities that people in the region have to face.
