Elise LAI 賴宛珊: From where to where?

Elise Lai
From where to where?

30 September – 20 October, 2010

Gallery EXIT is pleased to present From where to where?, an exhibition of new works by Elise Lai, on view 30 September - 30 October, 2010. Her debut exhibition at the gallery will feature paintings that explore how intimacy and distance merges in everyday life. Intimacy is initiated through an act of touch to acquire a relationship with things and people around. Following Lai's documentation of breakfast gatherings that she hosts, she is currently exploring how a foreign place becomes a site of intimate contact. Scenes from her travel are imbued with a sentimental touch by her choice of pale colors. A hotel room, an airport, an airplane, a view from the window seat, takes on personal significance as they become her most intimate lodging, although only temporarily. 

Born in 1987, Elise Lai is currently pursuing a Master of Fine Arts at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Lai is interested in probing the fragility of intimacy that we encounter in our everyday life.

​From where to where?

2010年9月30日至10月20日

Gallery EXIT 安全口畫廊將舉行賴宛珊首個個展《From where to where?》。賴宛珊以繪畫探索日常生活中疏離與親密的互動。親密，是通過觸覺與身邊人事物建立關係的過程，這可以從她一系列早餐聚會的記錄中體現。展覽將展出她遊走異鄉時的回憶，作品以淡色調敏感地捕捉不同場景的情調。酒店的房間，機場，飛機，機倉窗外的景色，都轉化成她親暱的寓所，儘管是短暫的。

賴宛珊，生於1987年，畢業於香港中文大學，獲藝術文學士。她關注日常生活裡偶然的親密感。
