[nb-NO]Creator[nb-NO]Ng Eng Teng (1934 – 2001)
[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]“Water Drops (1991), for instance, may be interpreted by the uninitiated as an abstract rendition of rain on a mountain slope, but was in fact inspired by a Chinese poem on the subject of tears which may be those of joy or of sorrow. So, instead of a mountain, it suddenly assumes the shape of two tear drops on a face looked at in profile.” (Bodies Transformed, Ng Eng Teng in the Nineties, Page 17).
