Eng TayEng Tay employs a multi-plate process in his etchings that is enriched by the "a-lo-poupee" technique. Hand painted and rubbed, burnished, his use of this technically complex process shows painterly transitions which, when combined with multiple plates, allow for a quiet play of color harmonies, tonalities, decorative motifs, and full-blown chiaroscuro.
Most of his work has found its greatest expression when addressing the concept of Family - the poetry of the family, of man and woman, of children, of friendship, of music, and of the natural world. Tay brings a universal quality, combined with personal myth into his works, and has evolved a narrative style that is lyrical, nostalgic, mysterious and exotic. He has found a way to reveal the harmony of life through the images of his memory. Since his goal is to create simple poetry, his are not ornate or pretentious images, but a poetic language that is freely accessible and readily learned, leaving a lasting impression of people in action and poetry in motion.
