A Tribute Exhibition To The Previous Generations : Family Pride 金玉满堂 solo exhibition by Puah Chin Kok
7 May 2025 - 28 June 2025 | Main Exhibition @ Muzium & Galeri Tuanku Fauziah, USM Penang
As an artist, Puah Chin Kok uses his lens as a tool to explore and interpret the complexities of the social, political, cultural and economic world. Through his work, he captures the essence of human experience, offering a visual narrative that reflects both personal and collective identities. His photography is more than an art form; it is a statement, a conversation and a means of preserving emotions and ideals across generations.
His personal collection, FAMILY PRIDE, is a heartfelt tribute to the deep and multifaceted emotions parents feel toward their children. Through powerful imagery, Puah Chin Kok encapsulates moments of hope, pride, longing and success-feelings that define the parent-child relationship. Children, as the next generation, carry forward the values, dreams and traditions of their families, embodying the aspirations of those who raised them. In this collection, Puah Chin Kok masterfully captures the unspoken bonds between parents and children, celebrating the continuation of legacy and love.
