Krystine Wen: The Elixir to Induce Euphoria

EVENT DESCRIPTION

“The Elixir to Induce Euphoria” draws its inspiration from the poison in Harry Potter, which brings sudden amusement and a sense of euphoria to the drinker.

Inspired by her observations of self and living environments, the artist uses a playful attitude to visualize experiences and reality. Just like drinking the elixir and entering an imaginary world, she reconstructs blissfulness and transforms it into motivation. Utilizing mono-screen printing and painting, she expresses her whimsical imagination and explores the emotional landscapes within social norms. While we may not be able to change the world, we still have the ability to imagine and play.

The artist will lead a series of Mono-Screenprinting Workshop.
