❤ To Heart

Sometimes we don’t see with our eyes, can’t hear with our ears. May be we just filter out what we don’t want to see.

視而不見,聽而不聞,有的時候,我們把耳目收藏起來。

Exterior 框外 (2016)

This is a composition of sound.  Red, green, yellow and purple, putting four polarising loud colours together to attain a kind of balance.  And I try to make everything simple, simple flat tone for the figure, simple shapes for the vase and the vines, so as to amplify the clashes of the colours. This aims to show the sound to be heard which lies somewhere outside the boundary of this picture.

這幅畫描繪聲音。透過並置紅、綠、黃、紫這四個對立而又強烈的色彩,我致力尋求一份和諧。畫面力求簡潔,人物用色簡明接近平塗,花瓶與藤蔓是簡單的色塊與線條,以強化對比色之間的碰撞。此舉目的是要展示落在畫框外、需要被聆聽的聲音。

Snooping Inward 內窺 (2018)

In my last exhibition, an audience signed as Yip said, “the uglier the vines you draw, the more conscious the people will be!”

上次畫展有一位署名「業」的觀賞者留言說:「把藤蔓變得更難看,那人們就更清醒!」

So I work on a painting with ‘ugliness’ as the theme.  I find black difficult to match with other colours and usually leave it out from my palette.  But this time the colour black is employed for the dirty hair of the figure.  Using her hands as a telescope, is she snooping for beauty, or may be ugliness?

於是畫了這幅以「醜陋」為意念的畫。平時作畫不用黑,覺得它不好相與,很難與其他色相配,但今次也用上了。畫中人一頭垢髮,以手作窺鏡向外探視,她要看的是「美」還是「醜」呢?

With a bit of serendipity, I have my paintings displayed in Green Meow! The stylish restaurant, this place of creativity, all these inspire me to move forward. And thanks again, Trevor!

一個陳設如家溫暖的餐廳,創意活潑的地方。能把畫作掛於Green Meow,都是承蒙了無限眷顧。再一次多謝Trevor!
