Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The image depicts a minimalist artwork featuring the word "DOCENT" in large, bold text against a plain white background. The composition is simple and centered, highlighting the use of negative space and the striking typographic element as the focal point. The stark contrast between the bold lettering and the clean, uncluttered background creates a visually impactful and conceptual piece. The artist's intention behind this work may be to explore the concept of education, teaching, or the role of the docent in the context of art and cultural institutions. ...

Artist
Kristy M Chan
B.1997, Hong Kong

Kristy M Chan (b. 1997, Hong Kong) lives and works in London, creates artworks that traverse figuration and abstraction, resulting in energetic, intuitive, and autobiographical compositions. Departing from surreal and bewildering moments in contemporary life, Chan describes her works as 'stolen realities.' Primarily employing densely applied oil and oil stick, her paintings serve as visual archives of intense personal interactions amid the transient dynamism of the city. Living between Hong Kong and London, Chan incorporates subject matters from an outsider's perspective, contemplating the interplay between her identity influenced by both Eastern and Western cultures. Chan is intrigued by extracting descriptive metaphors from literature and reimagining them in her own unique way. Kristy M Chan completed her BFA at UCL Slade School of Fine Art in 2019 and her MA in Contemporary Art at Sotheby’s Institute of Art. Chan’s first solo show with Tabula Rasa Gallery is scheduled in 2024 in Beijing. Her recent solo exhibitions include: Molehill Mountaineer, The Cabin (Los Angeles, 2023); Binge, The Artist Room and Simon Lee Gallery (London, 2022); Strong Cookie, Prior Art Space (Berlin, 2022); Totally Not, The Artist Room (London, 2021). Chan has also undertaken residencies at The Cabin, Los Angeles (2022–3); Del Arco Residency, Berlin (2022); PILOTENKUECHE, Leipzig (2020); and AiR Frosterus, Finland (2019). ...
