SLYVIA HAW - “ dans mes rêves / 夢の中で “


Artist statement:

When we see a sunset, we just revel in its beauty. We don’t point to the sky and say “that part needs to be a little more pink and that part needs more orange”.  We just appreciate the beauty of it. Thus, I use the sunset and its colours as a starting point to explore the relationship between my inner feelings and my surroundings. Working with acrylics, pencils and wood allows me to bring a soft, dreamy feel, as well as an unrefined touch to my work, allowing me to play with different textures and depths of colours.

A lot of my work is done in self-reflection to bring forth the tangibility of our desires and our dreams in relation to our realities and memories. To everyone who forgets the connection between their desires and their reality, I am also guilty and this is a gentle reminder to listen to your heart.

アーティスト・ステートメント

夕日を見た時、私たちはただその美しさを味わう。だれも”あの部分にもっとピンク、そこにもっとオレンジ色が必要”などとは言わない。その美しさに感謝するだけだ。だから私は自分自身への気持ちと周囲への気持ちとの関係を探す出発点として、夕日とその色を使う。アクリル、鉛筆、木を使うことで、さまざまな質感や色の深みと戯れながら、夢のような柔らかい感覚と同時に自然で素朴なタッチを作品に表している。

私の作品の多くは、現実と記憶の中で欲望と夢の形を引き出すために、自分を見つめ直す中で作られている。私自身も含め、欲望と現実のつながりを忘れてしまったすべての人に対して、自分の心の声に耳を傾けることを思い出させるものである。
