展覽作品中動物們各自發現牠們的彩虹，繼而迷戀，再鍥而不捨地追求，換來的欲是迷茫與感嘆。

月亮和彩虹，看似來自日與夜，同時出現在迷霧的晚上，浮光掠影，撲朔而迷離。

這是一個個關於遇見、沉溺、不理性和迷失的故事。

張惠文，1986年生於香港，現於香港中文大學藝術系攻讀藝術碩士課程。基於對自然之喜愛，張氏作品常以描繪自然之物為主，如花草、山水。後來感於動物生態保育的議題漸趨重要，嘗試以傳統中國工筆畫來表現大自然的美麗與小動物可愛的一面，並希望與人分享愛護動物和保護環境的信息。曾舉辦個人畫展《京城綿花糖》。作品入選《香港當代藝術雙年獎2009》並由私人收藏。


YY9 Gallery is pleased to present “Rainbow of the Moon” – a solo exhibition of Eunice Wai-Man Cheung.    This exhibition features the latest series of paintings by the artist, in which Cheung depicts the natural beauty of animals with the traditional Chinese gongbi techniques.    In addition to the delicate and refined brushworks of the gongbi technique that Cheng frequently employs in her paintings, this time, Cheng also experiments with the ink-dying technique to create a misty, colorful and illusory imagery.
Animals in this exhibition discover their individual “rainbow”. They feel delighted, then infatuated, and eventually they cannot let go of this uncontrollable desire for this beautiful but illusory “rainbow”.    At the end what have remained are just confusion and lament.
Moon and rainbow appear in the same misty night, dreamy and delusive. These are stories about crushing, obsession, irrationality and lost.
About the artist:
Eunice Wai-Man Cheung was born in 1986 and is now studying the Master of Fine Art program in The Chinese University of Hong Kong. As Cheung loves the nature, the beauty of nature and the loveliness of animals have always been the theme of her work.
Feeling that environmental protection is becoming more important, Cheung would like to share her idea of protecting animals and environment through Chinese gongbi (fine-brush) Painting. Her first solo exhibition is “Man in Beijing”. Her work is selected in the exhibition of the “Hong Kong Contemporary Art Biennial Awards 2009” and some became private collections.

Opening reception with the artist on 20 January 2011, Thursday 7-9pm
