His work is preoccupied with issues of environmentalism, renewal, loss of urban spaces, economic progress and technological development that have inevitably influenced and changed people\u2019s sense of reality. Chiew\u2019s paintings reflection of subconscious minds that are in constant flux, reacting to these changes around us. With broad confident strokes, Chiew draws and paints exuberantly on paper, demonstrating a unique sense of freedom and free-spiritedness in his style of painting. His sculptures are characterised by the use of found objects sourced over a period of time sometimes 10 \u2013 15 years. By formalising the accidental, he probes into the subconscious mind enticing the viewer to re-think and re-examine the subject matter in the work. The seemingly random assemblage of materials may not seem finished, it is constantly a work in progress.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_separator][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"color: #800080; font-size: 14pt;\">Experience<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-style: none; height: 168px;\" width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 28px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 11.3022%; border-style: none; height: 28px;\" width=\"72\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">1986<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 87.715%; border-style: none; height: 28px;\" width=\"477\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Diploma in Fine Art, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 28px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 11.3022%; border-style: none; height: 28px;\" width=\"72\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">1994<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 87.715%; border-style: none; height: 28px;\" width=\"477\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u00a0BFA, University of Tasmania.
