Charles CHAM started painting at the age of five inspired by the first movie he ever saw. It was a story about an artist with a magic brush and everything he painted became alive. He painted birds and they flew away. He painted fish and they swam away in the river. Finally he painted a woman, she became alive and they fell in love. When Charles came home that day after the movie, he started to draw a portrait of the painter on the floor with some cake powder belonging to his mother. That was his first portrait.
Charles CHAM’s work is based on the eastern philosophy of Yin and Yang – the duality of life and the attraction of opposites. “The Yin and Yang paintings are actually composite paintings. They are actually two paintings on one canvas, with each other facing in the opposite direction.” “I believe that drawing is thinking and painting is feeling. Therefore, I draw what I think and paint what I feel. As there is no feeling without thinking, there is also no painting without drawing."
Charles started to exhibit his works in 1990 in Aix-en-Provence, France. Since then, he has had exhibitions in Singapore, Hong Kong, Bali, Australia, France, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Portugal and Malaysia. He now divides his time between studios in Malacca and Budapest. His works are in the collections of art collectors in more than 40 countries. His official website is .

Biografía
ACERCA DE CHARLES CHAM. Nacido en 1962, Malaca, Malasia. SITIO OFICIAL: charlescham punto com.
Charles CHAM comenzó a pintar a la edad de cinco años inspirado por la primera película que vio. Era una historia sobre un artista con un pincel mágico y todo lo que pintaba cobraba vida. Pintó pájaros y se fueron volando. Pintó peces y se alejaron nadando en el río. Finalmente pintó a una mujer, ella cobró vida y se enamoraron. Cuando Charles llegó a casa ese día después de la película, comenzó a dibujar un retrato del pintor en el piso con un poco de polvo de pastel que pertenecía a su madre. Ese fue su primer retrato.
Después de trabajar como artista editorial durante unos años en Kuala Lumpur, se fue a Francia a pintar. Se convirtió en miembro de la Association des Artistes Indépendants en Aix-en-Provence y expuso en el Salon des Indépendants en 1990 y 1991. En 1993, instaló su estudio en el casco antiguo de su ciudad natal en Malaca, Malasia, y nombró it La casa de los orangutanes. En 1995, montó su exposición individual “Yin Et Yang Et Cetera” en el Centro Creativo, Galería Nacional de Arte en Kuala Lumpur. A esto le siguieron rápidamente otras exposiciones en la región e internacionalmente. Desde entonces ha expuesto en Singapur, Hong Kong, Bali, Australia, Francia, Reino Unido, Suiza, Portugal y Malasia.
Las obras de Charles CHAM se basan en la filosofía del Yin y el Yang: la dualidad de la vida y la atracción de los opuestos. Cree que todo tiene otro lado, visible o no. “Las pinturas Yin y Yang son en realidad múltiples pinturas. De hecho, son dos pinturas en un lienzo, uno con el otro mirando en dirección opuesta”.
Charles CHAM divide su tiempo entre estudios en Malaca y Budapest, donde ahora reside. Sus obras se encuentran en las colecciones de coleccionistas de arte en más de 40 países.

ABOUT CHARLES CHAM. Born 1962, Malacca Malaysia. OFFICIAL SITE: charlescham dot com.
Charles CHAM started painting at the age of five inspired by the first movie he ever saw. It was a story about an artist with a magic brush and everything he painted became alive. He painted birds and they flew away. He painted fish and they swam away in the river. Finally he painted a woman, she became alive and they fell in love. When Charles came home that day after the movie, he started to draw a portrait of the painter on the floor with some cake powder belonging to his mother. That was his first portrait.
After working as an editorial artist for a few years in Kuala Lumpur, he went to France to paint. He became a member of the Association des Artistes Indépendants in Aix-en-Provence and exhibited in the Salon des Indépendants in 1990 and 1991. In 1993, he set up his studio in the old quarter of his hometown in Malacca, Malaysia, and named it The Orangutan House. In 1995, he mounted his solo exhibition “Yin Et Yang Et Cetera” at the Creative Centre, National Art Gallery in Kuala Lumpur. This quickly followed by other exhibitions in the region and internationally. Since then he has exhibited in Singapore, Hong Kong, Bali, Australia, France, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Portugal and Malaysia.
Charles CHAM’s works are based on the philosophy of Yin and Yang – the duality of life and the attraction of opposites. He believes that everything has another side, visible or not. “The Yin and Yang paintings are actually multiple paintings.

THERE IS NO PAINTING WITHOUT DRAWING.
"I believe that drawing is thinking and painting is feeling. Therefore, I draw what I think and paint what I feel. Drawing is the idea, the thought. Painting is the emotion, the expression. As there is no feeling without thinking, there is also no painting without drawing."
- Charles CHAM
Charles CHAM’s works are based on the eastern philosophy of Yin and Yang. There is no fixed top-bottom position for his paintings. In fact, they are actually two paintings on one canvas, sometimes side by side and other times intertwined, and can be viewed from both directions. His challenge is simple: what else can you create on a flat four-sided canvas?
