Things that Blend in the Night
By Clarissa Tan
LIN Bao Ling’s work, much like the artist himself, gives the impression of longing to disappear into the ether.
His latest series of paintings is of landscapes at night, that time when hills, trees, buildings and rocks are almost completely hidden by darkness. These hills and buildings are often blended into a kind of misty glow, so they become virtually indistinguishable from each other.
Lin’s exhibition, called Nocturne IV is on display at the Marina Mandarin until the end of August. It consists of 27 paintings, all done in a mixture of oil and acrylic, produced during the six months that Lin was artist-in residence at the hotel. Many of them are scenes of Singapore’s Little Guilin Area.
