Angelfish With – OF

“Angelfish With – OF” is an original oil painting by artist Chau Ming Beck. This painting depicts two tropical fish in a fish tank, they seem to be comfortable and peaceful. The water is clear, the food is abundant. They are human pets; they have everything they need to survive. They shuttle freely in the limited space, as if they have no worries. But are they happy? Do they realize their limitations? Do they still long for the real free world? This painting triggers our thoughts on human and animal, freedom and bondage, happiness, and pursuit.
