a.m. space is proud to present the solo exhibition by Hong Kong contemporary ink artist Jacky Tao Hoi-chuen, Holiday. The exhibition will be on view from 20 May to 20 June 2021.
The paintings of TAO Hoi Chuen are manifestations of “lightness” in the traditional media of Chinese Ink and had been exhibited in Hong Kong and Taiwan’s Ink Art Expo in 2019 and 2020. He is a skillfully trained Chinese fine-lined painter who focuses on figurative paintings. He is fascinated by the sleeping gesture posed naturally by the models. He renders the human figure pale and reduce shadow as much as possible reducing the contours and allowing the light and texture to give the figures a light and airy quality. Reflecting on the Chinese Aesthetics of the irrelevancy of the likeliness of objects, Tao’s artwork is a contemporary experiment to capture the spirits and essence of the subject.
