Local artists Ian Leong Ka Ian and Jessie Che Hang Peng are jointly showcasing their watercolours in an exhibition entitled “Follow your heart” in room B071 of the 10 Fantasia gallery on Calçada da Igreja de S. Lázaro (瘋堂斜巷).
On until February 28, the artists are showcasing their creativity through recent paintings of flowers, places like Mercado da Horta da Mitra, Christmas-themed cards, among others. The works are presented either in frames of various sizes or on small cards.
According to a Chinese-language statement displayed at the gallery, the two artists are connected through watercolours. They hope that by exhibiting their works, they can enable visitors to the exhibition to feel “the tranquillity and beauty of the moment”, the statement said.
The artists also hope to convey the message that everyone is unique, noting that although one might have different thoughts and styles, if people have common goals and concepts, they can work together to create “dazzling works” and let diversity become the “greatest power”.
The paintings on display are for sale. According to the exhibition statement, exhibitiongoers can also choose to take a postcard as long as they make a donation, the proceeds from which will be donated to the Fuhong Society of Macau.
Exhibitiongoers may view the works from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. from Tuesday to Sunday during the period, while the gallery is closed on Mondays. More information can be found on the 10 Fantasia Facebook page or website.
