[nb-NO]Creator[nb-NO]Ng Eng Teng
[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]“Both Sitting Pretty A and Sitting Pretty C, 1994 are remarkable for the hollowing out of the torso, described by Eng Teng as “the big emptiness in the centre”, leaving just the barest outline of the figure. This outline is in fact a sinuous, unending line, creating elegant and effortless simplifications of form. The empty space within is the most active element in these pictures which can easily be read as human figures, not of particular persons but the distillation of all humanity.”” (Bodies Transformed, Ng Eng Teng in the Nineties, Page 31).
