Rendered with sensitivity and fluid grace, this Loving Family work reflects Lee Long Looi’s poetic approach to figuration. Using pastel on paper, the artist captures a quiet, affectionate moment between family members, expressed through rhythmic lines and a soft, luminous palette. The figures, stylised yet expressive, are emblematic of Lee’s signature visual language, are imbued with a sense of harmony and emotional depth. Rooted in themes of kinship and human connection, this work is a heartfelt tribute to the enduring beauty of familial love.
