These monumental works display the impact the environment had on him, both visually and emotionally. All of which are reflected in these paintings. His brushstrokes are confident and expressive, sweeping across the canvas in a fury of colours, layered one upon the other. Using a muted palette, his paintings reflect a feeling of nostalgia and longing. His use of space is best demonstrated in works like Wind, the Spirit Mountain and Spirit World series. This body of works display a strong development in Chong Choon Woon\u2019s artistic career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031{\nheight:35px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Art inspired by nature\" href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/contemporary\/portfolio-item\/art-inspired-by-nature\/\"><strong>Art inspired by nature<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CuRRENT\u00a0|\u00a0PAST works\u00a0|\u00a0press release Views of Nanjing Chong Choon Woon After spending a year completing his Masters in Landscape Design at Nanjing Forestry University, Chong Choon Woon returned to Malaysia armed with a series of large canvases depicting the breathtaking vistas of Nanjing.
