The More Things Change , 2021
122 x 92 cm (h x w)
oil and acrylic on canvas

My highly finished and graphic pictorial practice is rooted in my cultural identity. My work finds solace in the in-betweenness of cross-cultural hybridity by articulating my oscillation within the orient and the occident. Embracing the power and simplicity of mass cultural iconography and languages, the poignancy of my work lies in the convergence of historic and contemporary subjects, ideas and aesthetics that derive from popular culture, Chinese antiquity, graphic design and more, to synthesise new meanings.

我的高度具象化、图形式的绘画风格根植于自己的文化身份。我的作品阐明自己在东⻄方之间的振荡,以及身处跨文化的混杂中,并因此找到慰藉。我的作品发挥出大众文化符号和语言的力量和简洁,融合了历史和来自流行文化、中华古风、平面设计等当代主题、思维及美学而表现出尖锐感,并合成新的含义。
