Lau
Interdisciplinary Visual Artist
“My work investigates the relationships between human, architecture and nature, as well as time and space, and explores different ways of transforming them into a new contemporary visual language and experience. My research covers Abstract and Conceptual art practice, as well as installation and public work, and how to integrate conceptual ideas into my paintings and/or installations. I experiment different materials, objects, tools and technology, explore the interaction with interior and exterior spaces and time, play the composition with improvisation. I’m currently working on two major series. One series belongs to abstract paintings where I experiment different ways of representing the nature, landscape, architecture, and human interactions and transform them into my unique visual language. Another is related to my collage/installation series in which I investigate the relationships of materials, objects, forms, shapes, space, architecture, time, and human interaction, and explore different methodology of installation using various technology and sensory elements. ”
