Artist Review - Au Hoi Lam

Au Hoi Lam
She graduated with a bachelor degree of Arts and a master degree of Arts in the Chinese University of Hong Kong . Throughout these years , she has held a lot of art exhibition, such as Definition of time, When words are Sweet and Matrix Inside out. In fact, her drawings gives others a sense of girly as her paintings have the characteristics of faded, pale color and human figures that make others feel childish.

In fact, her paintings show her own confession to herself. Every painting shows her experience, her feeling of life, her happiness and sadness etc. She uses painting to reflect her own sensibilities towards life.

Though it is simple, I like this art work very much. It shows that we can use rainbow color to describe a week.How colorful it is. In fact, from this art work, I keep telling myself I can be happy every day. It just depends the way I think. If I think negatively, my week may only have back and white color. I am trying to think positively when facing every problems.

Osage - If only there were no lies

A few weeks ago, we went to visit the Osage gallery in Kwun Tong. I was deeply impressed by the art work of one of the artists- Au Hoi Lam. Once I saw her art work, I would like to interview her. Her artwork makes me feel relax and comfortable as the color of her artwork are nice and plain.

The artwork shown from the photo named "If only there were no lies". It seems that it is just a desk and a chair that Miss Au works and studies on this table. Yet, when she does this art work, the fragments function was just like a puzzle game, helping her to reminisce the days that she keep telling lies.

After seeing this art work, I thought of myself. How many lies I have made? What makes me lies? Perhaps, sometimes I lie as I don't want people to worry about me. Sometimes, I lie because I don't want to be scolded. Sometimes, I lie as I don't want to show my real self. I pretend to be happy, just smile. When someone asked " Are you unhappy?" I lied " No, I am always happy" even I feel depressed and lonely.

How about you, why you lie?
