Taste Of Motion

60x100cm Oil On Canvas

At first glance, Taste of Motion presents a surprising contrast: a bottle of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti—one of the most expensive wines in the world—sits casually at a humble hawker stall selling Mee & Lor Mee. The scene feels surreal, even humorous. But look deeper, and a quiet philosophy begins to reveal itself.

What if the hawker is the owner of that rare wine? What if he’s not working out of necessity, but out of love—for the craft, the connection, the motion of everyday life? In this imagined world, luxury isn’t flaunted. It rests quietly on a cart, next to utensils and soy sauce bottles, blending into the rhythm of ordinary joy.

This painting suggests that happiness can be simple. Perhaps the finest things in life—be it a legendary wine or a warm bowl of noodles—are best enjoyed without pretension. Or maybe the wine doesn’t even belong here… but still, it belongs. Because in moments of honest living, where passion overrides pressure, everything finds its place.

The food cart, the textures of work-worn tools, the hanging cloths, the shine of the wine glass—all rendered with careful detail—speak of movement, daily ritual, and quiet pride. The composition freezes that fleeting magic when worlds overlap, not in conflict, but in harmony.

Taste of Motion reminds us: joy doesn’t need a grand stage. It can be found in the clatter of bowls, the hum of a motorbike, and the sip of something special—alone or shared. Luxury is not what you own, but how fully you live.
