About the Item

Interlude II - Alexandra Yan Wong Regular price Dimensions: 40cm x 50cm Bio The paintings of Alexandra Yan Wong explore the interplay between the abstract visual and the personal mind. Inspiration most often comes from within, despite appearing as fleeting spectres in the surrounding environment. Her meditative paintings are built through layers of varied materials emblematic of space and time; gestural mark-making allows catharsis. Alexandra studied German literature and philosophy at the University of Oxford, and these topics have lingered and shaped her artistic practice. In addition to artists such as Rothko, Kline and Park Seo-Bo, she draws influences from the works of Goethe, Schiller, Hoffmann and Jung, amongst others. Inspired by Jung’s theory on the unconscious, Alexandra’s work relies on instincts and urges. The symbolism and narrative, if any, happen as a result, and form the beginning of a journey inwards. Artist Statement My latest work represents my recent thoughts about my upbringing in Hong Kong and subsequent move to the UK. After not having visited home in a few years due to the pandemic, my recent trip stirred up feelings of nostalgia and compelled me to research my roots, as well as to revisit topics, which I had only scratched the surface of during my academic career. Drawing from my Chinese roots, I incorporate broad calligraphic strokes and juxtapose them against geometric shapes. Instead of focussing on the contrast between the fluidity and rigidity of this dualistic nature, the overlapping of layers reveal an organic process in reconciling past and present traditions and beliefs. This is a stillness and calm brought about by resolution. In this way, I hope the viewer can find in my paintings a moment of stillness, a state of suspension where introspection is free to take place.
