Johnny Au Kin-wai 歐健韋
Johnny Au Kin-wai (b.2000, Hong Kong) mainly works in painting, drawing, and installation, delving into feelings of powerlessness in our daily lives and social environments. Drawing inspiration from the interactions around him, he employs a repetitive methodology to uncover the emotional experience and core essence of powerlessness in daily life. In his work he takes pleasure in experimenting with various everyday objects, investigating their materiality and context while examining how they align with his conceptual processes. The integration of repetition and ready-made objects thus serves to create tension, a way to capture the emotions behind their interactions. By embracing the imperfections and powerlessness found in the repetitive process, his artworks reflect our shared experiences, revealing the human condition and our resilience.
