A watercolourist with a great eye for detail, Chow Chin Chuan’s deep fascination towards the bicycle — one of the world’s oldest modes of transportation — and for depicting traditional Malaysian abodes is apparent in his works. His works often bring nostalgic memories of how cycling was a common vehicle back in those days. The subject matter is close to the artist’s heart as they remind him of his father and childhood. Chow Chin Chuan obtained a Diploma in Fine Art and Figure Design from Kuala Lumpur College of Art (1982-1983). He has held more than eleven solo exhibitions to date which included his first titled Tribute To The Bicycle in 2002 and Flavor at The One Gallery in 2018. He has participated in group exhibitions abroad in Indonesia, India, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Sweden. He was the recipient of the Consolation Prize for the Sin Chew Press Cartoon Contest in 1989 and Minor Award at the Young Contemporaries, National Art Gallery, Kuala Lumpur in 1990.
