Mind Palette and Empty Land - Tsang Chui Mei Solo

artist photo_tsang chui mei.jpg

Nature abounds with diversity, manifesting in varied shapes and hues; the human heart, with its unique individuality, radiates its own inherent beauty……

Tsang Chui Mei, a local artist from Hong Kong, resembles both natural landscapes and dreamscapes on her canvases. She infuses her works with a unique visual language and a variety of materials that evoke endless imaginations. In Tsang's artistic world, the concept of space is symbolic. She presents landscapes that are abstract and expressive, immersed with her personal emotions and thoughts, and that differ from reality. The spatial imagery contained in this exhibition portrays delicate and obscure inner landscapes, representing a tranquil and non-existent state.

 

Tsang Chui Mei's theme of “Mind Palette and Empty Land” comprises three parts: “different”, “colour”, and “fair”. This theme represents a marketplace constructed from infinite colours within a space that is different from the ordinary world. "Fair" not only implies a lively market, but also represents a tranquil and non-existent state, according to Tsang's description. However, it is within this state that the unique and exquisite sense of contrast becomes the highlight that distinguishes Tsang from other artists. Using material as her visual vocabulary, Tsang symbolises the forms of mountains and rocks in the wilderness with fragmented textures and colours that appear to be cracking. She also employs snow and scattered ice cubes as metaphors to represent the appearance and process of growth and decline in nature.

Deeply fascinated by the changes and disappearances in nature, Tsang Chui Mei hopes to enable the audience to perceive the elusive power and brilliance of the wild landscapes' abstract and expressive form, as well as the tranquillity and loneliness within the realm of emptiness and reality. Furthermore, Tsang aims to convey the profound connection generated by the subtle relationship between nature and humanity. Touch Gallery cordially invites you to attend Tsang Chui Mei's solo exhibition, "Mind Palette and Empty Land," to enter this space where art and nature blend, to experience the interweaving and colliding yet merging realm between art and nature, and to sense the illusory dreams at the end of the soul.

自然萬有,異型異色;又如人心,各自美麗……

香港本地藝術家曾翠薇在畫布上構建出一個個仿若自然景色,又恍如夢境的空間,以獨特的視覺語言以及不同的材質物料,賦予作品令人無盡遐想的意味。同時,在曾氏的藝術世界中,空間的概念是象徵性的,以抽象寫意的方式呈現異於現實的景致,並融入個人的情感思想。

「異色墟」這個主題,對曾翠薇而言是由「異」、「色」、「墟」三個部份構成,即是在異於常世的空間中,以無窮盡的色彩,建構而成的墟市。「墟」,不僅有熱鬧市集的含義,在曾翠薇的描述中,更是「虛靜」的境界......但是在此境,這種獨特曼妙的反差感卻成為曾翠薇區別於其他藝術家的點睛之筆。她以物質手段作為視覺語彙,以那些崩裂的紋理與色彩的碎片,象徵曠野中的山石形態;以那些積雪或散落的冰塊,暗喻自然界中枯榮消長的樣貌與過程。

曾氏對於自然界中的變革和消逝深深著迷,希望令觀眾們可以透過空間意象的抽象繪畫,感受到自然界中那種難以捉摸的力量和光輝、亦虛亦實中的虛靜境況,表現幽微、朦朧的內在風景;以及感受自然與人類之間的微妙關係所產生的深刻連結。Touch Gallery誠摯地邀請各位觀眾參觀曾翠薇個展「異色墟」,走進這片天地交融的空間,體味藝術與自然的交織對抗又融合的境界,感受靈魂盡處的虛實幻夢。
