Description
Affinity Art is delighted to present Resilience by Praween Piangchoompu, the Thai artist’s first solo show in Hong Kong. Through a series of ethereal woodcut prints, the artist offers a glimpse of his mindscape where both memory and sentiment are visualised.
Set in minimalist, almost stark compositions, the works momentarily root the viewer in a familiar interior. Subtle shifts in light emphasise the everyday objects depicted – be it a desk with a lamp, a chair or two cups set on a bare table, with the glow from a nearby window casting their shadows in an otherwise empty scene. Though void of life, the carefully chosen objects hint to signs of presence – the slightly deflated pillows, half filled glasses, two chairs facing each other. The scenes can be understood as a conversation, or rather, an echo of one happening at another time and place.
