Whitestone Gallery H Queen's is honoured to present Lustre of Hope, the first solo exhibition of Chinese artist Jiang Miao in Whitestone's gallery space in Hong Kong. In this exhibition, oil paintings, prints and carving works from her 'Life' series are presented. It also showcases the latest creations from the artist which reveal her continuous exploration of the philosophy of life, presenting her ingenious paintings, and bringing a journey of reflection and inspiration to the audience.
Born in 1981 in Jilin, China, after graduating from the China Central Academy of Fine Arts with a masters degree in Prints and Multiples, Jiang Miao continued to pursue her career as an artist. Art has been her nature since a very young age. She strived to achieve mastery in the academy. Years of endeavour, multiple breakthroughs have forged her distinctive technique and artistic expression. She delved into the traditional Chinese philosophy, and quest the intangible and mystical power of the universe through the making process of her artworks where she wanders in her inner landscape to search for the answer to the ultimate truth of life. Under her carving works hide dozens of layers of colours. Each layer captures the artist's expression of the light of life and colours she felt from the powerful sun. Her ingenious carving techniques and composition connote the strata of energy, engineering a sacred life whorl from the higher world. Her works from various series seem discrete and at the same time relevant to the same cosmic space.
