The composition focuses on a pair of isolated figures in a worn-out state rendered in the artist's distinct imagery. The sumptuous colour palette of red, yellow, and blue is characteristic of Anthonie's style. By painting human forms in fluid brushstrokes, his art offers a sense of realistic depth and solid volume. Drawing inspiration from social realism, Anthonie Chong is revered for surreal scenes focusing on the human experience. The carefully constructed figures are Anthonie's experimentation of composition, medium and colour. Anthonie Chong graduated with a Diploma, majoring in Graphic Design, at the Perak Institute of Art in Ipoh in 1990. He had worked for short spells as an art teacher, graphic designer and illustrator, but thrives mainly as a practicing artist who likes to work in series. He held his first of six solos at the X Pub and Gallery in Penang in 1994, and was even given a solo at the Singapore National Museum in 2002, called Naked Perfection. He won the Malaysian level award in the Philip Morris Asean Art Awards in 1998.
