ARTWORK DISCRIPTION
A Cantonese opera costume made of Euro coins ( 1 cent, 2 cent and 5 cent ), beer cans and paracord
Drinking is common culture of Western and Eastern societie. As a HongKong artist I make a connection with Belgium, 2 different cultures.
Beer plays an irreplaceable role in daily European life.
In Eastern culture drinking is escaping from real life, in Western drinking is happyness.
Thsi is traduitional difference.
The garment is based on Eastern culture with a Belgium mix. Colors of the Belgium Flan as well as beercans from Belgium beer.
Garment made in coins, due o original warriors armour was made of bronze parts.
This woman starts making molotov cocktails because she is disappointed with her social status. Maybe in the past she was milkmaid but in these days that profession is disrespected and almost impossible, even forbidden in home conditions because of so many laws and big industry.
ARTIST INFO
“Denise Lee, an artist who cannot live without cats.
To be frank, art is not my goal. But I do believe in the power of art that is able to resonate with the public by transforming heart-wrenching or even annoying topics into provoking metaphors. Most of my works are inspired by my experience of serving the animal community in Hong Kong as a volunteer. I always strive to explore the contradictory relationship between humans and animals through art. Everyday objects and scenes are interpreted as symbolic elements in my art in a narrative but not sentimental approach. The ambiguous relationship between the objects, the audience and me is built in order to raise public awareness and social concern. So: art for art’s sake, or art for society’s sake?
I prefer the latter.”
