The interdisciplinary work of Melbourne–based artist Szelit Cheung ranges from painting, drawing and photography to sculpture and installation. He captures his attentive and subtle observations of light conditions, forms and structural compositions with oil paint on canvas or wood. In Cheung’s work, fleeting light situations in space fan out into manifold shades and complex depths of color. The mostly small-format works move on the edge between figuration and abstraction.
