Voon Kim Cheong has a deep sense of vision and energy that reveals his purposeful movements of strokes in his works. Inspired by traditional dances of various ethnic groups of the indigenous, Voon exhibited their diverse dance forms enchantingly on canvas.

Voon具有深刻的视野和活力，可以揭示他在作品中有目的的笔触动作。受到土著各族传统舞蹈的启发，Voon在画布上迷人地展示了其多种舞蹈形式。多元文化环境中的团结，喜悦，力量和勇气精神高涨，动作刻画深刻。迅捷的笔触和鲜艳的色彩迷惑了Voon的作品。
