Richard Koh Fine Art in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia presents a selection of work by Chinese artist Sun Xun (CRF 2012). The show featuring watercolor drawings and stop-motion animation films runs through August 14 229, Jalan Maarof, Bukit Bandaraya, Bangsar 59100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Xun is counted among China’s most talented rising young artists and the works on view clearly reflect his artistic practice. It is a combination of meticulous craftsmanship in traditional artistic expression and forward thinking. “Sun works adeptly across diverse mediums to provide an immersive installation punctuated with exuberant new energy for when reality and fantasy collide,” the gallery writes. “One who’s intrinsic motivation is to expand the potentials of his choice medium, Sun masterly weaves traditional visual formats of drawing, painting, and woodcut into sequences of digital stop-motion animation.” This is the first solo exhibition in Malaysia by the artist.
