About the Artist: KWAN

Artistic Philosophy
KWAN’s artistic practice is rooted in the exploration of identity, emotion, and the balance between contradictions in life. Her work delves into the transformative potential of materials, using their textures and forms to evoke deeper narratives and emotional connections. She believes that art is not only a visual experience but also a medium for introspection and self-discovery.
Creative Style and Mediums
KWAN’s creations are characterized by abstract forms and a minimalist aesthetic that emphasizes the beauty of simplicity and materiality. She works extensively with plaster, concrete, and decorative finishes, transforming these functional materials into powerful storytelling tools. Through layers, textures, and contrasts, her art reflects the interplay between fragility and strength, chaos and harmony, permanence and impermanence.
Inspiration
Drawing inspiration from her personal experiences, emotional landscapes, and the contradictions of modern life, KWAN explores themes such as identity, transience, and the human condition. She is also inspired by the natural environment, architecture, and the tactile qualities of materials, which she reinterprets into abstract visual languages.
