About ‘Imaginarium’, as part of ‘Between Salt and Light’:
“The collection of works in this series - titled ‘Imaginarium’ - talk to a world within worlds; a world in which the smaller you go, the bigger things get. In this series, I pay particular attention to seashells, which to me, symbolise the cylindrical nature of life - birth, death and resurrection. Their hard, complex, and intricate exterior protects the vulnerable creature inside; they are a safe haven, a home.
Imaginarium celebrates these homes - these inter-worlds that are sometimes small but ever-expanding." - Ming Nomchong
About ‘‘Between Salt and Light’:
The ‘Between Salt and Light’ exhibition brings together three artists whose practices attend closely to line, surface, and elemental process. Across works on canvas and paper, the exhibition considers how natural forces - salt, water, light - act as both material and measure, shaping form through accumulation, erosion, and exposure.
The exhibition emphasises a shared sensitivity to process and duration. Rather than depicting landscape as image alone, the works register it as an active field: traced, marked, and altered over time. Lines appear as residues of movement and attention - drawn by sunlight, tide, crystallisation, shadows, and gesture - hovering between intention and chance. Photography operates not as documentation but as translation, extending material encounters into optical ones, while works on paper and originals honour touch and repetition. Together, the works invite close attention to subtle shifts in material, perception, and time.
