About the painting:
This painting depicts the eternal blooms of the orchids in a misty morning light. The Orchid Festival is an annual event in Kew Garden, one of a kind in the UK, featuring all the best colours of the Orchids in the late winter time when nature seems in hibernation.
Orchids are the ones that defy the weather blooming even in the deepest winter in low temperatures.

About the Spring Exhibition Series 2023:
Spring Exhibition Series try to push impressionism forward toward Matisse; Yi is having a very daring courtship with colours and the simplicity of lines and forms, then her paintings move even further closer to the language of Howard Hodgkin, making these new works under this lineage of less about the realistic representation, much more about the colours and its meaning behind the brushstrokes, to celebrate the power of imaginary spaces.
These two masters, Matisse and Hodgkin are at the two ends of the dial, and in between is her playground for this new Series- “ Spring Cats and the Sunny Factory”

Artwork description:
The painting captures two major spring trees in the artist’s garden, painted plein-air in the garden for three days, later on, Yi added the important locations of London that are dear to her memories; in this painting St Paul’s Cathedral could be viewed from Ludgate Hill.
The language of two trees: Cherry Prunus and Forsythia (was planted in 2015 by Yi in memory of her grandmother.) Both trees bloom at the same time in early Spring when the weather is still very much like winter, the sight of these colourful blooms wakes up the senses and brings hope after a long cold winter.

This painting is one of the Summer Bloom series Shizico Yi started in 2022.
Veronica and Hydrangea (in the painting) are the summer elements in her garden, Shizico cultivated these deciduous shrubs in 2015, and since, they blossom from late spring into November faithfully every year.
They are symbols of longevity and loyalty like old friends.
Alongside gardening, Shizico started a series of drawings and plain air paintings in this Memorial Garden, trying to keep the blooms and seasons frozen in time on canvas and paper.
Shizico Yi built this Memorial garden in memory of her beloved ones, her late 16 years old dog she lost in 2017, and her late partner who died in 2020. This painting is a part of the series, Summer Bloom.

Autumn in London Series no 7, Limited Edition of 30.
Size: 30 x 40 cm (11.8 inches x 15.7 inches)
To document the streets they've walked and her late dog's favourite trees, Shizico embarked on a series of Plein air paintings in autumn, the season when Favor died. The colours of the turning leaves symbolise our aging. Standing hours each day painting in the chilly London autumn air kept the artist alert to one's mortality, yet, within the colours of nature, one finds the energy of restoration and allowing time to contemplate the memory of their decade-long walks.

Lady and Her Dog was the first painting Shizico was able to paint after Favor, her late dog-son, died. It took Shizu 100s of days to paint and work again after losing Favor. This painting is to relive the frozen moment of their embracing, based on a photo taken a month before Favor died. (2017)
The charcoal drawings of their hands holding and intertwined, the raw energy of the markings of Favor's coat contrast with the thick textured hairs of Shizu and the misty blue of the garment and the air around them. The contrast of these textures and colours describes the separation between two worlds, a universal feeling of human nature. Arts turn grief into a reunion through an artist's hands, making art to create a 3rd space beyond this synthetic universe we are living in.
This edition is made with the finest finishing on Aluminium, ready to hang.

Shizico's latest series explores the simple pleasure of drawing and the simplicity of forms. The key concept of the series is to document moments of contentment, finding pockets of silent joy in day-to-day living with the simple act of drawing in purer forms. The drawing style of this series goes back to the most basic, it's Shizico's attempt to find new visual language in her artmaking after years of dark period in her personal life.
