Throughout the Secret Garden Spa, you will find a number of floral paintings by Ting that demonstrate the beauty and range of this renowned artist.
Walasse Ting was a Chinese-American painter, graphic artist, sculptor and poet. Ting’s unforgettable paintings “fuse dancing brushstrokes with vivacious neon colours. His subjects are joyful: parrots, flowers, cats and beautiful women in bright pinks, oranges, blues and greens.” (Source: Catto Gallery)
