Selected Exhibitions
2015, Ataraxy, Chan Hampe Galleries, Singapore
Ataraxy, Ruben Pang's fifth solo exhibition, extracts creative energy from disarray and entropy, thus realising the state of tranquility the term implies. In each painting, various artistic personalities find themselves in psychodramatic scenarios with their subconscious drives personified through figures in constant change, sometimes playing host to parasitic vegetation, other times surgically reconfigured and twisted into conversations with one another and their surroundings.
2013, New Energetics: Inverting the Process, Chan Hampe Galleries, Singapore
Featuring a series of canvases and sculptures, New Energetics: Inverting the Process departs from his earlier Futurist vision of split personalities and psychic schisms, and allows for the recollection of the past through the present. The pictures are not self-portraits in the literal sense, but are a compilation of combined memories; the forms and figures in the paintings are never planned. Each image morphs into another during the process, circulating everyday visual stimuli, from film scenes, paintings, and mythology, into characters that become symbolic while remaining faceless.
2013, Aetheric Portraiture, Primae Noctis Art Gallery, Lugano, Switzerland
2011, Angels, Chan Hampe Galleries, Singapore
Pang describes these paintings as projections of his psyche which reflect on notions of prospect, arrival, and transformation. With no preconceived directives on how the painting should look at its inception, Pang’s process of creation evolves and gradually builds up with each brushstroke and layering of paint. Through his use of a multi-colour palette and technique, the artist aims to create a feeling of dynamism within the medium while exploring the boundaries of colour, form and transparency.
