Object artist Pilz Au Yeung was born and raised in Hong Kong, she is an old friend of mine and after years of persuasion, she has finally agreed to be a bit more extroverted about her works.
Pilz’s works are the channels that her inner psyche communicates with others. By turning metal, crystal and acrylic into experimental and wearable objects, she express the deeper side of her or encourage one to think deeply within themselves.
The picture above is of the centrepiece from the series Frozen Moment, she wrote such a beautiful artist statement and I hope my interpretation does its justice: As we all have milestones in our lives, alongside there are plenty of moments that we remember, eventually constitute the person we are today – they’re these frozen moments that supposed to stay with us for the rest of our lives – but as time fly by, new milestone take place, and we change. Chinese often metaphorise time as flowing water: as these frozen moments being dropped into the flowing water of time, how much memories can we truly hold onto?
Pilz will be part of a group exhibition in Sydney in January 2013, look forward to see you Pilz!
經過多年的唇舌,我的老朋友,香港土生立生長的立體藝術家Pilz(姓:歐陽)終於願意讓我為她的作品在澳公開。
由金屬,水晶,丙烯酸酯等製成,可穿戴的小型藝術品,代表一個人內心與世界的另類溝通。在她親自陳述上：「記憶如冰塊般凝結如糖衣般溶掉曾經以為重要的事情也 變得模糊…」
我相信有過去才有現在有將來,Pilz的作品給我一個啟示:既然過去可以被流水般沖去, 究竟我們有沒有能力引導自己的將來,還是被已變質的過去克制著？
2013年1月,Pilz將來澳參與一個群體展覽會,我絕對期待看她的新作。
