About Work

Leung Siu Hee was born in the Solomon Islands and graduated from the National School of Fine Arts in Paris in 1980. He has since settled in Paris, France.

 

Leung Siu Hee 's black and white charcoal works depict plants and animals with meticulous realism, interspersed with everyday objects such as tables and utensils. Unlike typical sketches, Leung Siu Hee 's works go beyond mere still life depictions. The objects are subjectively arranged and freely positioned, creating a sense of mystery within the black-and-white or monochromatic world. Adding to the enigmatic atmosphere, his works evoke a feeling of aging and stagnation.

 

In Leung Siu Hee 's interior scene works, most of the objects are shrouded in the dark shades created by the charcoal strokes. The objects seem to be imprinted into the artwork, exhibiting an extreme level of realism, yet with an elusive quality. They show the passing of time and create a mysterious and serene atmosphere. Combining real experience and virtual imagination, the choice of objects comes from fragments of the artist's consciousness. They include everyday objects such as gloves, tables, chairs, glasses, tripods, water bottles, as well as non-realistic objects such as ancient marine fossils. The appearance of flowers and plants in the artworks, whether withered or lush, brings a touch of vitality to these melancholic and nostalgic scenes.
