LEE WENG FATT : Kampong House Series: Bagan Serai II, 2003
Est: RM6,000 - RM9,000
From Lee Weng Fatt’s acclaimed Kampong House series, this 2003 depiction of a heritage house in Bagan Serai showcases his devotion to preserving Malaysian vernacular architecture through artistic reverie. The painting emphasizes architectural character with weathered timber, chipped cornices, shuttered windows rendered with sensitive brushstrokes and lyrical linework. Bird cages, subtle flora, or a perched rooster often appear in Lee’s compositions as quiet companions that animate the scene and symbolize the cultural life of traditional kampong settings. Here, light filters softly through slatted facades, casting gentle shadows that evoke warmth and nostalgia. Lee’s artistry speaks less of structural accuracy and more of mood with each brush and paint gesture celebrating not just buildings, but the soul of a Malaysia in transition.

LEE WENG FATT : Jalan Lebuh Pasar KL, 2003
Est: RM3,000 - RM7,000
Renowned for his dedicated documentation of Malaysia’s vanishing architectural heritage, Kuala Lumpur born artist Lee Weng Fatt has built a celebrated career capturing the nostalgic charm and historic soul of old urban landscapes through a romantic impressionist lens. This deep passion for preserving history on canvas is beautifully realized in his 2003 work, Jalan Lebuh Pasar KL, which serves as a vibrant visual archive of the capital’s historic heart. Painting with his signature thick, textured brushstrokes and a masterful command of natural light, Lee Weng Fatt captures the elegant colonial era shoplots bathed in a warm, atmospheric glow. Rather than focusing on modern commercial chaos, he emphasizes the timeless dignity of the old buildings, using a rich, inviting palette to evoke a profound sense of memory and quiet resilience. By balancing sharp architectural observation with a deeply sentimental atmosphere, Jalan Lebuh Pasar KL stands as a powerful love letter to the city’s past, transforming a familiar street corner into a timeless monument of cultural identity.

LEE WENG FATT : Kampong House Series - Bagan Serai I, 2003
Est: RM5,000 - RM9,000
Lee Weng Fatt’s work lies mainly in ‘preserving’ heritage buildings by capturing their timeless beauty and allure through his canvas. He started out as a watercolourist and in 1995 decided to try oils and has since mastered the medium. This work however, is acrylic on canvas, his brilliant attempt at a varying medium. The primary subject which has made him famous and highly sought after are old heritage buildings in various locations around Malaysia, particularly in Melaka, Penang and KL. As more of these buildings are forced to give way in the name of progress, the artist feels an obligation to preserve and document them in the way he knows best by immortalising them through oil or in this instance, acrylic on canvas paintings. For him, returning time and time again to these old edifices is akin to journeying back to his roots.

Lee Weng Fatt has a knack for painting old buildings as he believes in the philosophy – the older the better.

The pièce de résistance, however, is the birdcage perched on the wooden stairs. Its placement creates intrigue and draws viewers in.

LEE WENG FATT (b. 1967) OLD SHOP KL, 2015, Oil on canvas
Est: RM4,500 - RM7,500
It was a time of the traditional Chinaman-run sundry-shops with five-foot ways before being made obsolete by mini-markets and supermarkets. The artist, Lee Weng Fatt known for his works of heritage architectural facades, remembers the time he helped his shopkeeper father in his shop in Jalan Panggong (near Petaling Street). Two large baskets (what’s the content inside?) are stacked on a tricycle, while another is left on the street-side. The tattered condition of the roller bamboo chicks blinds hints of a waning business, while a clump of rogue plants grows on top of the pediments on the left. But the memories, as shown by the blurry effects, are sweet. Lee Weng Fatt graduated with a Diploma in Art & Design at the Kuala Lumpur College of Art in 1989.
