Edvard Munch, Stormy Night, 1893
“The dramatic natural event of the storm, the sharp contrast between bright windows of the house (promising security) and the immeaurable depths of the dark night - in other words, an account of physical actuality - have been refashioned into an image of inner tension and conflict.”
This “Stormy Nights” Solo Drawing Exhibition, Corn Shuk Mei Ho has selected three series of works to exhibit in the Gallery space in the Jam Factory, Oxford.
1) Night Swims Series (2017-18)
2) The End of F***ing World illustration (2018)
3) Dear Lily Series (2016)
These three series are related to the young adults of their inner struggles and unlimited imaginations. They are all about youth, courage, ideology, loss, and then find their own stories. These groups of young individuals still possess the imagination of younger children. Still in the pursuit of the ‘ideal world’, the ‘adult world’ causes them to lose out on opportunities countless times. Once they pass through the darkness however, they find themselves emerging from the storm and seeing the world more clearly.
