Paper Pulp/Water Collages

Goh Beng Kwan’s one-month residency at STPI produced 40 new paper pulp works in collaboration with master paper maker, Richard Hungerford, using the ‘water collage’ technique to float materials that eventually settle down to make the work. This method of collage-making marked the artist’s experimentation in print-making processes by playing on the idea of ‘renewal’ through the giving of new life to discarded materials, using the transformative potential of art. The works produced combine Goh’s intuitive and spontaneous qualities with his sensitivity to materials that resonate with his experiences of nature and its propensity for renewal in the continuous cycle of life.
