About the Item

Suits are wearables and a symbol of status. Chickens are food supplies and a cruel symbol in the food chain. They all draw resources from nature. Li Ya-Wei is a Chinese artist born in 1990 who lives works in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province in China. He is graduated from the Oil Painting Department of the School of Art Design of Nanchang University. His works are permeated with the unique expressionistic turmoil, confusion and anxiety of young artists of his age, and some of his works also show the critical and redemptive consciousness of resistance and search because of this disorder, confusion and anxiety. It is believed that in next few years, his works will be more violent and touching. The restless soul of such a young artist can be seen throbbing in an atmosphere of melancholy harmony and silence.

Clouds and Shadows I Abstract-Expressionist Painting, Black Gold
By Nguyen The Hung
Located in Rye, NY
Colorful wandering clouds in Hung’s works are inspired by traditional cloud ornaments from Vietnam’s ancient citadels and temples. Those ancient ornaments act like a negative version of clouds wandering throughout the space of the pieces. They link together to create a limbo world, where matters become vague and surreal. Another level lies underneath, hiding deep below the clouds the artist has created realms of consciousness and thoughts. Hung, joyful and relaxed, plays around with his dots. Silver dots, golden dots, together they light up the atmosphere to create a passive aura. Ornamental clouds, or simply just dots, they move from one shape to another, unsettled trying to find a logical order for themselves to fit in therefore challenging viewers’ senses. The order of signs creates spaces of uncertainties and invalidities, where the artist’s stories would be tied together and unfold. Silently, the artist submerges himself into an imaginative valley with no boundaries of shapes, strokes, and of random visual connections. The dreamy artist tries to hold on to his childhood memories, from straw scarecrows, late afternoon birds, handmade kites, boys looking after horses in mountain...
