Ling Yang Chang

Born

1963, Singapore

Ling Yang Chang, having graduated from Chinese studies and Economics from National University of Singapore, finds a natural affinity for Chinese brush painting which he approaches like a Chinese traditional scholar. In line with this, Ling carves his own seals and appends calligraphic writings to his paintings. He balances both Chinese and Western influence in his works. Ling has won many awards and commendations including a certificate of commendation in the 1996 UOB Painting of the Year and the first prize in the 2011 Dr Tan Tsze Chor Art Award.
