n abstract expressionist based in Kuala Lumpur, Jaee Tee regards texture as her language to create tells the story of venturing through the mountainous wilderness and looking back to the reward of a breathtaking view, embracing a feeling of complete wholeness. For Tee, the steep slopes of mountainsides are a metaphor for the ups and downs of life, inspiring a rush of motivation, patience, and strength required on the journey to reach the pinnacle. As one grows older and attains wisdom from life experiences, this striking piece makes one contemplate the significance of lost aspirations; only upon realising this does one return to their true self. In a mix of inky black and grey juxtaposed with vibrant hues of gold and a burst of white, Tee’s clever gestural strokes give way to a narrative that expresses a recovery of forgotten passion.
