The participating artists of “Muses’ Calling” represent six different forms of Muses, Huang Yin, Hua Xiyu, Niu An, Scotie Ad, Vianne Savoli, and Diana Zhang came from different growth backgrounds. Their paintings have significant characteristics that are peaceful, rebellious, or even dream-like portraying a variant regional cultural scene; On the other hand, their cross-cultural sojourn life after adulthood offers them vision and perception beyond time and space. Through the clear brushstrokes, colors, and emotional expressions that detach from the present, the inner power of women is fully told: the stereotype of women being outsiders in art history has long been challenged, and their gender identity represents no longer a subordinated power system. We hope this group exhibition could be a unique experience that re-position the “self” as a female: social documentation, environmental impression, cultural identity, lifestyle, emotional expression, dialogic therapy, etc., altogether showing us the aura of the complex, mysterious and seductive goddess, Muse.
