Yau Bee Ling was born in Kuala Lumpur in 1972 and studied painting at the Malaysian Institute of Art, graduating in 1995. Since then she has exhibited her works extensively, being recognized for her distinctive layered works and is regarded as one of the most powerful contemporary painters in Malaysia today. Her most recent exhibition at Wei-Ling Contemporary in March 12th 2016 entitled By Hands marked her 18 years as an artist. The show focused on our contemporary lifestyles increasingly influenced by the presence of mass media communication, our more intimate forms of communication seem to be getting increasingly obscure. With this show, Yau Bee Ling has carved out a new artistic approach as a means of addressing this rapid change. It is with this new fusion of approaches that the artist has developed a more liberated visual expression.
