Belong (2010) acrylic & thread on canvas – 101 x 171 cm
This painting was exhibited inside the Chinese museum. The aim was further investigate the humans and animals, through the use of large-scale canvas to examine the individual’s relationship with themselves and others. This story is about my personal experience in Australia hence the use of a Kangaroo, a symbolic animal from Australia. This distorted figures and incorrect propositions and perspective are used to represent the girl’s naiveness. The girl inside the kangaroo’s belly represents women and their emotions. This painting aims to experiment with secondary color and softness of color attach to a large scale. Perspective, narrative, decoration, patterning and humor were again explored.

The Girl Holding a Pig (2010) acrylic on canvas – 42 cm x 60 cm
A figurative imagery work inspired by 2009′s Swine Flu epidemic disease. I painted a happy and healthy Chinese girl holding a pig and wearing a full-face yellow stitched mask on her face as a way to satirise people’s reaction towards the disease. This paint shows traditional Chinese clothes with a bright and powerful colour in order to give more positive outlook of the real situation. However, the texture and surface of the painting need more development.

Self portrait - Tiger Year (2010) acrylic & thread on round canvas – diameter 35 cm
In the Chinese year, 2010 is the year of the tiger. The idea for this painting is to make an imaginary self-portrait. The happiness in her face, is a reminiscent of my childhood, when I used to liked to play with plants and animals. The content contains positive and humorous message for the viewer. Girl with tiger head, with big laughter, funny teeth like a rabbit embroidered with brown thread.

Kayan Girl (2010) acrylic, paint glitter, fabric, & thread on round canvas – 60 cm x 42 cm
Kayan Girl, is another early paint inspired by a magazine article reporting on a human exhibition done in northern Thailand. The article story was about women of the Kayan tribe (Burma) and how they are used as objects to improve tourism rates. According to the article, these women have to wear metal coils on their necks. The weight of the coil will bring down the structure of the collarbone and compressed the rib cage elongating the neck, hence their nickname: Giraffe women.

The aim is to improve my drawing skills and color sensitivity through the use of watercolor in small mediums. This experiment included a splash technique to enhanced details inside the image. Shapes and colors of jellyfish photographs found on the Internet inspired me. I was amazed by this creature�s form and beautiful colour. I studied it, learned it and finally transform it into an abstract drawing.
