Mediha Ting's latest series, titled Ray of Light , employs her signature techniques of layering and juxtaposition of the abstract and the figurative on the same paper. From afar, one can view the first layer on the paper: color stains in abstract gestures. On a closer look, there are detailed intricacies on subsequent layers. Common across the series is the focus on what Ting describes as“spiritual light”– the provision of light and love to be shared by all religions. This reflects Ting's Muslim background combined with her Catholic education and keen interest in Buddhism. Also shared amongst the works are the figures of maps from the site of the Umbrella Movement, allowing the viewers to interpret Ting's local heritage. Flowers and nature, particularly orchids, inspire the more demure colour scheme of this series, and provide a balance to the hectic city atmosphere that is also reflected on the work. This series, is a glorious reflection of Ting's varied background and her diverse and mixed philosophy.
