Kowloon Walled City Series (Ver. 6) - Lifeguard's experience at Dentist Street
• Assuming that Alfred Hui operated a dental clinic at Dentist Street in a cheap rental condition for helping the impoverished residents there heal their dental illness
Prof. LUI Chun-kwong’s advices
• “One kind of brushstrokes for rendering one kind of iconographies”
• Attaining a consistency between the tone of the background and the tone of the subject matters
• Flat application of pigment
Prof. LUI Chun-kwong’s advices
• Examples: Leon Golub’s “Mercenaries V” & Richard Artschwager’s “Untitled Interior”
For the rest of my three paintings, I will follow Prof. Lui Chun-kwong’s advices to render two criminal paintings and one life-figure painting by employing a lifeguard colleague as my model for doing so.
–
Life-figure painting: Do two pieces of nude drawings first {* A1 drawing paper, only included in documentation}. Then, move on to paint a long pose in which the lifeguard model wears a pair of red shorts {* 48” x 36” canvas, as an exhibit at CUHK Art Museum}.
• (* Just like Prof. HO Siu-kee’s project testing my ability in accomplishing Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s “autofigurative sentiments” ideal, but adopting Prof. LUI Chunkwong’s chrominance and compositional methodology)
•
