Lulu NGIE 倪鷺露
BIOGRAPHY Lulu NGIE Born in 1972, Fujian, China Hong Kong-based artist Lulu Ngie uses simple lines to depict a character's gestures and movements as a way of reflecting their psychological and mental state. Ngie deliberately erases the background. Instead, the body is the space or the universe within which the seemingly lost characters search for answers. The lines that are completed in a single brush stroke are drawn in sync with the artist's breath and contain her emotions at the time. This is Ngie's way of bringing to life these wandering lines, animated by the air flowing in the body and the expression of feelings in motion. Ngie graduated from Hong Kong Art School in 2006, majoring in painting. Her works have been shown extensively, including solo exhibitions at Gallery EXIT in Hong Kong: The Sensitive Body (2022); Relax Until Distraction Comes (2019); ART021 Shanghai Contemporary Art Fair 2016 (Shanghai, 2016); and Day After Day After Day (2013); also Fictitious Force (Art Los Angeles Contemporary, Los Angeles, 2018). Selected group exhibition participations include: Minding the G(r)a(s)p (Parasite, Hong Kong, 2022); In search of absence (Korea Cultural Center in Hong Kong, 2021); Deep Silence (Hong Kong Arts Centre, Hong Kong, 2017) and To Each, his zone (Gallery EXIT, Hong Kong, 2016). Ngie’s works have been acquired into the collections of the M+ Museum in Hong Kong and LUXELAKES•A4 Art Museum in Chengdu and numerous private collections based in Hong Kong and overseas. The artist currently lives and works in Hong Kong.
