Constant Gardener-Original Oil Canvas
[Constant Gardener] and [Memory Landscape Series] are projects Shizico Yi began in 2015. She explores the forms, layers, and materials to express the relationship between space, time, and memories through installation, film, photography, painting and gardening.
Shizico painted this painting en plein air over two weeks in her garden in Scotland. The distinct Scottish landscape and buildings in the background contrast with her cottage garden creating a generous space that feels like a warm hug from Mother Nature.
[Constant Gardener] is Shizico's project to build a garden for her then-ill dog to recover from a neurology disease; after Favor, her Labrador died, the project continues as a Memorial Garden to honour the memories of her loved ones. Her London and Scotland gardens became the centre and springboard for ideas for her paintings; over the decade, Mother Nature and Animals became her ultimate muse.
In this painting, the power of the landscape and its healing tranquillity are heightened by brushstrokes gilded with Gold Leaf.
In recent years, Shizico has applied gold leaf as a conduit to portray the dimensions between memory and present moments.
Time travels between different surfaces, and the mind wanders in this painting. It is a key work in the solo exhibition[Memory Landscape], June 2024. It is in the permanent exhibition catalogue.
