About the Item

Edition 1/15 WOWSER NG is a China-born, London-based visual artist. He graduated from University of the Arts London with a master's degree and also received a letter of recommendation from Steve Brodner in 2019. Wowser is known for his digital paintings, in which bright colors, and fashionable products, Asian queers have developed a unique painting language. Defining his practice as a challenge to pop culture, he appropriates fashion products to form unique visual narratives to explore Gen Z, media influence, and materialism.  The artist says of his work... "Fast," "hype," and "packaging," brings extravagant material consumption, as well as symbolic business culture, which makes the power of the individual irresist the tide swept. Therefore, it easily leads the public to succumb to quick and temporary popularity. The existence of pop culture further defines the commodity's connotation as anti-art, making the commodity and commerce a symbol of overturning high spirits attacking traditional art. My work functions by appropriating fashion products, and commodities. These sleek and gorgeous images depict generation Z, an era of rapid material economic development, and attempt to highlight the dangers of continuing to support materialism. When I put forward the issue of the relationship between commodities and people, the audience needs to reflect on the influence of the media in generation Z on us and question the power of the fashion/product industry endorsement. My painting combines abstract and figurative, which is a challenge to Pop art. I develop the painting practice of combining abstract and Pop with a visual narrative to reveal the pop culture under the influence of the current society.

    Located in Bal Harbour, FL
    Papillion, 2018 Giclée print on Archival Cotton Paper. Acid and Lignin-free. The painting is a limited edition Giclée print, created using high-quality archival cotton paper, ensuring its longevity and preserving the intricate details of the artwork. The central image of the composition features a butterfly, but instead of traditional organic patterns, it is formed by a captivating arrangement of geometric figures. The butterfly serves as the focal point of the painting, capturing the viewer's attention with its bold and vibrant colors. Shades of fuchsia, blue, orange, green, white, black, yellow, and light blue interplay harmoniously, creating a visually striking and energetic composition. Upon closer inspection, one can discern that the butterfly's wings are constructed using a meticulous arrangement of various geometric shapes. As the viewer's gaze explores the painting, they may notice that within the composition, there are additional elements arranged in the form of eyes. These eyes, composed of circles of varying sizes and triangles, lend an intriguing depth and surreal quality to the artwork. They evoke a sense of introspection and invite contemplation about the interplay of perception and reality. Papillion, 2018 Giclée print on Archival Cotton Paper.

  • Hand-coloured Print of weeping mythical sculpture angels in Walnut Frame
    Located in London, GB
    Hand-coloured tableau of a weeping spirit and her guardians, immobilised in marble. A disjointed narrative looking at recovery and protection, the angels shield the spirit with tender embraces and cry for her when alone. Taken from The Sialia Marbles, a series of portraits containing ephemeral human sculptures taken between 2016-19. Together these works act as tales contained in a fictional sculpture hall, in direct reaction to Andre Malraux’s 1947 Le Musee Imaginaire (Museum Without Walls). During the beginning of the 'Museum Age' in the 18th century , writer Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe discussed mythical...
