Original-Winter Bloom 2019-2024
"Some paintings take years," Shizico Yi told the curator, revealing that this particular artwork falls into that category. It's a piece she returned to after years of living with it, a creative journey that had a moment of revelation inspired by Claude Monet's The Rouen Cathedral Series, which Claude Monet concurrently painting up to 14 versions of it, shifting from one canvas to another based on the changing play of light throughout the day. Shizico Yi drew inspiration from Monet's bold exploration of contrasts between light and dark in the sky and the architecture. His daring use of white in this series intrigued her.
Fast forward five years, Shizico finally uncovered the essence of the original drawing on this canvas. This prompted her to experiment with the interplay of white and dark tones in the background. The result is a breathtaking visual feast of colours and light, showcasing intricate forms and a profound sense of spatial depth.
This painting is in the Line-Up collection Spring Exhibition 2024, GSY Studio Gallery, UK.
