About the Item

In my new series of paintings, I remain faithful to my interest in observing human activities in the metropolitan city life and my fascination in the silhouette of the human figures. Compared to my previous collection, Still Frames, where figures are distributed evenly across the canvas like a pattern; the people in my new works have shrunk in size, yet ironically, have more details. The introduction of shadows further enhanced the reality of space, light and time. Based mainly on photographs, sometimes I paint whatâ€™s there, and at other times I choreograph the picture. Appear to be floating liberally on the canvas, every single figure is carefully positioned. Just like composing a piece of music, with notations hanging across the lines, creating enchanting melodies, conversing with the spectators. I want viewers to appreciate the paintings initially through the activity of looking, without interpretation. Stand afar and squint your eyes, get a feel of the picture through its colours and composition, enjoy the poetic movement of the crowds, then gradually drawn to the details of the figures. :: Painting :: Contemporary :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: On the edge of the painting :: Canvas :: Diagonal :: Original :: Framed: No

The minimalist background provides space for imagination, allowing viewers to connect the scenes to their own experiences. Each figure is delicately painted using tiny paintbrushes, capturing the fluidity and vibrancy of life. The composition extends around the edges, adding a three-dimensional element to the artwork. This technique invites viewers to engage with the piece from multiple angles, enhancing the sense of depth and immersion. My goal is to evoke a sense of individuality and community within the bustling pulse of city life, encouraging viewers to find their own stories within the scenes I create.”- Stephanie Ho
