| Description |
The notion of a living eulogy was originally inspired by the little wooden tablets that hang in the Cheng Hoon Teng temple in Tony’s childhood hometown of Melaka, Malaysia. The tablets commemorate loved ones who have passed on. ‘Eulogy for the Living is a devotional work for making our way in the world. Here we transform and reconnect a deeper part of ourselves, within the fleeting transience of contemporary life. We the living both preserve the past and allow things to pass – we eulogise ourselves in each moment. Life goes on…’ |
