YULAN

“When is a colour not a colour?

In my new work, I am moving in a different direction. I've never used the colour purple before. At least, the colour ‘reads’ to the eye as purple but when juxtaposed against other colours, appears as a neutral tone. I wanted to make the floral motifs of Dianthus like x-rays or shadows – almost like a blurry memory.

These new works give a sense of being temporary, delicate, and not quite in focus- using techniques of calligraphy to apply thin washes of oil paint, as if it’s watercolour. Whilst my previous works portray energy and movement this new series enjoys a more centred stillness.”

- Joanne Yulan, 2023

Joanne Yulan’s new series of works further her exploration of botanical motifs rendered with traditional calligraphic techniques.

Titled ‘Dianthus,’ the works reflect the artist’s interest in the ancient etymology of words, here referring to ‘the flowers of Zeus.’

Where previous paintings were inspired by ancient Chinese characters, Yulan’s latest works are further influenced by the artist’s father- a renowned botanist whose research trips to the forests of Southeast Asia provided countless samples of pressed flora from which the following images are derived.
