Honey and Arsenic-the solo show of Shi Wen, 2020
Project type
Exhibition
Date
September 2020
Location
Seeyoo Space, Hangzhou
Role
Curator
The works in this exhibition represent two very different uses of color, and the gallery is thus divided into two sections. On the left-hand wall, there are six small, richly colored, and textured canvases and an exquisite Tempera. On the right-hand side, the gallery is divided into two walls: on the left side, there are six small, richly colored, and textured paintings and a delicate Tempera; on the right side, there are cool, sharply colored paintings and drawings. The two works on the main wall in the center serve as a transitional link. A group of sculptures in the center of the exhibition hall echoes the paintings and breaks up the space. The curators and the artist have skillfully used the spatial structure of the exhibition hall to manage the location. The space is absorbed as part of the work, reflecting the interplay between the painting and the space. It is also worth mentioning that the artist has painted a huge mural on the exterior wall of the exhibition hall to support the exhibition. The large mural painted on the outer wall of the exhibition hall will serve as a clue to the interpretation of her works.
