About Interpreting Discomfort Oelgemäldeserie

Interpreting Discomfort ass eng Serie vun Oelgemäldeen iwwer perséinleche Raum a sozialen Drock. Déi Wierker weisen Hänn an Aen a gestellte Szenen, déi alldeeglech Momenter vun Onbequemlechkeet nostellen. Léif Gesten kënnen d'Leit méi no zesumme bréngen, awer ze vill Opmierksamkeet kann och Onbequemlechkeet verursaachen. D'Gemälder kombinéieren zwou Techniken. D'indirekt Molerei baut eng schwaarz-wäiss Basis op, déi duerno mat Faarf glaséiert gëtt. D'direkt Molerei dréit gemëschte Faarf direkt op d'Uewerfläch op. D'Serie ass mat Oelfaarf op Liewand a Holzpanneel gemaach an gëtt a Galerien gewisen als Ufank fir e Gespréich.

Direct painting is the method of contemporary painting, which directly superimposes the adjusted color on the canvas.

Design Challenge
Ideation and the atmosphere is the hardest part of this project. In the presentation of the picture, the shape of the hands must be placed harmoniously in the picture without losing the beauty.
Research
The first thing is to study how to create an uncomfortable atmosphere. Eyes and hands are good parts for expressing emotions. The unnatural feeling of combining these two makes the picture more attractive and intriguing.
Inspiration
The images she make for this project are staged recreations of her own experience, and she believe that it is also the experience of many other people. This series deals with issues of discomfort and stress in everyday life. We all care about how others view us, this has become the same as our invisible living standards.
Project Duration
The project began in San Francisco in 2020. Participated in Contemporary Venice 2021, Italy and Small Works 2021, New York.
Operation Flow
It will be displayed in a gallery, and these paintings can be a tool for conversation.
