Bogie

Bogie is known for his unique style and medium, in which he combines collage with paint. He coined his method "Collaint". The method involves covering the canvas with soft hand-made paper and then painting over it using acrylics or oils, with additional layering of the paper during the process of painting. This technique produces a delicate contrast between paper and paint. Bogie has participated in many local and overseas exhibitions and his paintings are in the collection of the National Museum of Singapore.
