A painting from Liu Xuan Qi’s “Wandering Cloud Series”, this painting surveys the role of tradition and identity in rapidly evolving societies. The stone lion is a symbol of traditions while the cloud represents change. It is in this painting that Liu Xuan Qi incorporates the tile designs that can are commonly in the floors and walls of peranakan houses. This is Xuan Qi’s way of gradually incorporating the elements of different culture that can be found in Singapore into his paintings.

In 2012, Liu Xuan Qi was awarded the Platinum Award for his “Wandering Cloud” series of paintings at the Annual UOB Painting of the Year Awards.
