Eric Quah is a Malaysian born artist who comes from Taiping Perak. Born in 1946, he uses art as a representation of his life journey where he states to make him feel like a gypsy. This is because he has lived in many countries throughout his life that include his home in Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand and China while travelling to other continents across Asia and to Europe. In doing so, he has been able to see life from various perspectives, a privilege not enjoyed by many.
