Read more about the Artist’s Inspiration behind “Pottery Jungle”:

“Out in the middle of the jungle, a hidden treasure awaits, resting in the summer sun you’ll find an original dragon kiln where beautiful ceramics are fired … blue & white porcelain are displayed in huge volumes with the backdrop of jungle leaves peeping through. This artwork explores the idea of entering into this hidden world of visual delight.

The original image for this artwork was taken on a day out exploring. 92 Cairnhill is a heritage home that is located in a road just off Singapore’s well-known Orchard Road. The overgrown foliage surrounding this particular home is what initially drew me to this image. I love the way the blue gate is framed by large tropical plants; it reminds me of the story of the secret garden. I think Singapore’s historical homes have many stories to tell and this is just one of them. These patterns re-emphasizes the unique mix of cultures that are visually displayed in Singapore’s Shophouses.”
