You Rise by JM Robert
Hong Kong art gallery Art Supermarket is pleased to present You Rise, the solo exhibition of selected works by French street and pop-artist JM Robert. You Rise collection is distinctive portraits, rendered in JM Robert’s free-spirit characteristic, conveying a desire to rise and to be seen in the world of mediocrity.
Overlaid with splashes of spray paint, this series of woman portraits add a touch of modernness to our horizon. The mark making process is a representation of the artist JM Robert’s free spirit. Scratches and scrapes repeatedly occurred on the canvases mimic the spontaneity of contemporary dance movement and the intensity of performers’ body strength. The dashing and dripping give hints of the artist’s presence and his fluorescent character.
JM Robert paints poetic faces in the style of stencils on abstract backgrounds. He works the background with gradients effects and patinas, like the surface of an old wall. He uses a coating that he shapes, scratches and scrapes until he gets the desired effect. He then applies bright, fluorescent colours layer by layer. Unpredictably, they seep into the background and cracks of the canvas. He then outlines the shadow of a woman’s face, anonymous and fragile. Drawn in pencil first and then with black paint, it is superimposed on the landscape. The design and colour combine to create a portrait with a strong presence and a penetrating gaze.
Previous Exhibition: SPRAYCATION by Szabotage
Hong Kong art gallery Art Supermarket is pleased to present SPRAYCATION, a solo exhibition of new works from British street- and pop art artist Szabotage. The show features 12 large canvases and will be on display from 5 November until 26 November 2020. The Opening Reception – with the presence of the artist – is at Art Supermarket, 6 pm – 9 pm on Thursday, 5 November 2020.
Evolving from Szabotage’s previous collection True Reflections, where the face mirrors and captures every day elements in a graphic form, SPRAYCATION is a break from reality. Just a spray (paint) away from the current unprecedented, crazy times we are all experiencing this year.
In the new exhibition, Szabotage depicts the development of layered stencils as a visual language, with iconic symbols of Hong Kong painted beneath the portraits of women. Each stencil is hand drawn and hand cut, and is positioned to create a collage of narratives.
