Chee Yong New Works

An exciting exhibition is about to begin on the 20th September at Blenheim Gallery with new work by Chee Yong. Chee is influenced by the Tasmanian landscape, its ravines, rock faces and steep alpine country and winding walks.

His work is appreciated not just by Tasmanian collector’s and the structure of his paintings are abstracted but still outstanding. We do hope you will come and view and the catalogue will be online shortly.

Artist Statement

Chee Yong is an interdisciplinary visual artist currently interested in the ambiguities of mark making in abstract and representative paintings. His interest in the landscape in an abstracted way with strata layers of rock faces and intriguing crevices one might find when walking in the Tasmanian landscape are suggestive in Chee’s recent works.

 As recognition to his artmaking Chee has been included as a finalist in many art prize exhibitions including the interstate Wynne Prize, S.H. Ervin Refuse exhibition 2024, Tidal Exhibition Paranaple Art Gallery, Devonport, Glover Art Prize 2025, Bay of Fires Art Prize, and the Hadley Art Prize.
