包媛茵 『夢幻風景』版畫及繪畫展覽 Faye Bradley’s
Dream Landscapes
- 羅卓睿畫廊呈獻英國藝術家包媛茵 Faye Bradley 全新版畫及繪畫展覽 。
- 藝術家包媛茵在香港出生和長大,隨後前往英國利茲大學攻讀藝術與設計學士(榮譽)學位。她一直對視覺藝術充滿熱情,並在繪畫和繪畫生活場景中為自己找到了舒適感。在利茲大學學習期間,她開始使用油畫來製作中大型藝術作品,並創作了一系列名為 『夢幻風景』 的畫作。 『夢幻風景』旨在創造一種人無法獲得的對無形夢想世界的感覺。憑藉對夢想和夢想的濃厚興趣,包媛茵通過她對人類行為的獨立論文研究,研究側重於夢想的過程以及藝術家如何在作品中受到啟發和使用。她的畫作以一種明亮,超脫現實的氛圍將觀眾描繪成一種懷舊和夢想的回憶。能夠通過多種大型(和較小的速寫)繪畫來展示這一點,使觀眾的視線能夠在每種構圖的顏色和形狀上徘徊,並感受到她希望喚起的感覺。
- 羅卓睿畫廊 將於 9 月 11 日 下午 6 時至 8 時舉行開幕。查詢電話|Whatsapp:+85264447550
- 目前,包媛茵居住在香港,將於10月中旬搬到倫敦,繼續從事視覺藝術事業。
- Faye Bradley was born and raised in Hong Kong before moving to the U.K. to study Art and Design BA (Hons) at the University of Leeds. She has always had a passion for the visual arts, and found comfort in drawing and painting scenes of her life. During her study at Leeds university, she began to use oil paint to produce large scale art pieces and composed a series of paintings, entitled “Dream Landscapes”. Dream Landscapes aims to create a sense of the intangible dream world which humans cannot acquire physically. With a deep interest in dreams and dreaming, Faye has studied the human behaviour through her Independent Study: Dissertation, which focused on the processes of dreaming and how artists are inspired and use this in their work. Her paintings transcend a luminous, surreal atmosphere, and aspire to portray the audience into a nostalgia and remembrance of a dream. Being able to showcase this through multiple large-scale (and smaller studies) paintings, allows the viewer to wander across the colours and shapes of each composition and get a sense of the feeling she wishes to evoke.
- The processes used behind Faye’s paintings in Dream Landscapes, were inspired by the
- memories of her previous holidays and moments of happiness- found through photographs. She used these photographs as memoirs and found nostalgia and comfort, when looking at these.
- Using a selection of her best photography, she found sections of this to concentrate her
- paintings on. To find the landscape composition, she chooses the most critical points of interest on each painting, particularly focusing on the curvature of the mountains and roads to create an “unreal” landscape. She derives much of inspiration from reknowned artists, David Hockney and Milton Avery. Both these artists display an exquisite way of working, using colour to express a vivid scene. Faye expresses her notion of dreaming through colour as well, using luminous, light washes of oil paint to embody a sense of faded memory- much like being in a dream.
- The artist’s fascination in dreams was founded from her own experience in dreaming and how each one differs nightly- sometimes retraced but slightly different each time. She aims to recreate this through her work and translate the idea of dream imagery in painting Dream Landscapes series comprise of oil painting. This was a new technique for the artist, after using it only from three years ago. The fluidity and ability to create transparency through oil paints was a huge factor in determining her choice of using this medium. The importance of transparency was to focus on the dreamy atmosphere and help to enhance the dream experience for viewers.
- Faye enjoys painting on large canvases because she feels this really helps to translate a message and allow her to freely paint across the page, without restrictions. She made her own frames for her canvases as well as some ready-made ones for the larger paintings. Compositions were tested through smaller-scale studies, before being painted on the larger canvases. She also created prints of the paintings in the Dream Landscape collection, in order to allow viewers to see the paintings from a different angle and size, which completely changes the tone of the image. Faye found that this brought out a new, exciting challenge to her work.
- Currently, Faye is living in Hong Kong and will be moving to London in mid-October to further pursue her career in the visual arts.
- Opening reception : 11,12 September 2018 6-8 pm
珠光寶氣的一夜
Dinner Party at Tiffany’z
In this Open Studio Show, Law Cheuk-Yui presents works from Two New body of work where his signature painted portraits pays tribute to Hubert de Givench, whom was famous for designed wardrobe of breakfast at tiffany's for Audrey Hepburn which incorporate to the visions of photographer Bud Fraker, film director Blake Edwards and the charisma of Audrey Hepburn, these paintings capturing the mix of candour, melancholy, determination and ambition of such iconic images from the movie.
In these two new series, Law’s work explore forms of both abstract and figurative, through a unique combination of Contemporary Pop, Photo Paintings and Color Field. Rendering his subjects in a (Richter’s) photo-painting manner, each figure is then enveloped within a colorful swell of shapes, color and form.
Such surreal interventions are accomplished through the artist’s methodical process of mark-making. Utilizing a wide range of materials, Law’s mixed media approach creates a hypnotic tension between the familiar and the fantastical. Using Acrylic and Paint Markers as the solid foundation upon which Law’s figures manifest, oil paint and glitter are then layered upon the main subject in a more intuitive manner. These saturated patterns move around the figure, further highlighting various gestures or the occasional curious glance peering out from behind the colorful structures.
在這個畫室開放夜展覽之中,畫家羅卓睿展示了兩個新的繪畫作品系列,他以招牌風格肖像繪畫向于貝爾·德·紀梵希致敬,紀梵希以為柯德莉夏萍設計的早餐設計而聞名,融入了攝影大師Bud Fraker,電影導演布萊克愛德華茲的藝術眼光和柯德莉夏萍的魅力,這些畫作捕捉了電影中這些標誌性圖像之中坦率,憂鬱,決心和野心的混合。
在這兩個新繪畫系列,畫家羅卓睿的作品通過當代普普藝術,照片繪畫和色域繪畫的獨特組合探索抽象和具象的形式。以照片繪畫的方式渲染他的主題,然後將每個人物包裹在形狀,顏色和形狀的彩色膨脹中。
這種超現實的互動是通過藝術家有條不紊的製作標記過程來實現的。利用各種各樣的材料,Law的混合媒體方法在熟悉和幻想之間產生錯覺。羅卓睿創作時候使用丙烯酸和顏料麥克筆作為人物形象的堅實基礎,然後以更無意識的方式將油畫和閃粉層疊在主要主體上。這些飽和的圖案圍繞著圖形移動,進一步突出了各種構圖或偶發的視線引導從彩色結構後面回望。
