Santiago Evans Canales: Preciously Profane Possessions at Double Q Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

In a liminal space amid “primitive” experiences and erudite allegories, in which a childlike spirit and the memories therein clash with the adiaphoric character of metropolitan solipsism and the tangential contradictions of contemporary subsistence, innocent and wild scenery thrives affably in the open countryside or along the banks of waterways. Formally composed of a multitude of simple forms and large patches of earthy colours, they generate an authentic, open, and uninhibited fresco.

 After the gust of a warm summer evening breeze and generous caresses, libidinous bodies and sweet memories embrace each other. Pleasantly protected by a white sheet, they celebrate the immense pleasure of the present moment, symptomatic of an ideal world that pushes the limits of conventional representations.
