CORN SHUK MEI HO 何淑美 :

Painter, Day-dreamer, Wanderer
I graduated with an MFA from the University of Arts London, Wimbledon College of Arts in 2016, and have a BA in Fine Arts and French Studies from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2010. I live and work in London. Since graduating I have shown my works in both solo and group exhibitions in the UK and Hong Kong, and my works reside in many private collections. I set out to explore the deepest levels of the human subconscious. The atmospheric, melancholic tones of my drawings and paintings evoke sensations of dislocation. These works document my interest in what is lost and what is found, the ambivalence between what is the fleeting memory, and what is synthesized as a trace within the landscape. I had a solo exhibition in Fringe Club, Hong Kong, and a double solo exhibition in the Chelsea Waterside Artspace, London in 2019. Three paintings (City, Swimming Pool, and Party) from the Night Swims series have been awarded the 1st Painting Prize from D Contemporary Painting Prize 2019 at D Contemporary Gallery in Mayfair, London. I am having a solo exhibition 'Night Swims 2020' in D contemporary Gallery, and will have a solo exhibition and residency in the Art Park in Rhodes, Greece in 2021. |
