Unframed 60x60cm Artist: Gao Ping

Gao Ping is a traditionalist in a contemporary world.  She has avidly studied Chinese traditional painting and much of her inspiration is drawn from her knowledge of those techniques and the Masters of those times. She uses these techniques with expert precision to create inner conversations and the results are contemporary paintings heavy with emotion. An introvert who battles with the fast pace of the city, she uses painting as her means of escape and communication.  Much of her work seeks to bring still and calm, much of it is a journey to a less frenetic environment. Her abstract works take her away from daily noise and her ink studies are more reflective and nostalgic of her childhood and the scenes she sees around her in daily life. She is a well exhibited artist with international recognition and has been featured in “Half the Sky”, a book by Luise Guest, Manager of Research at the acclaimed White Rabbit Collection in Australia.

Magdalen Wong's work focuses on discovering alternative perspectives and experiences for everyday objects, often interpreting their shape and packaging as "scores” or codes for potential actions. Her mug has been taken from a video piece recently exhibited in Osage Kwun Tong Gallery. Wong received an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has performed and exhibited in the United States, Hong Kong, South Korea, China, and Sweden. She currently lives and works in Hong Kong.

Lam Tung Pang uses both traditional and non-traditional materials to produce pieces engaging with ideas of memory and history. His mug depicts a tiny scaled model of a man, reading a newspaper, in front of window patterns a detail from one of Tung Pang's major art piece, The Youngest and Oldest, 2011. Tung Pang studied at Central St. Martins, UK and has been awarded numerous scholarships and awards, including the prestigious "Hunting Art Prizes Young Artist of the Year”, U.K. and the HK Contemporary Art Biennial Awards. He has exhibited worldwide.

A boxed set of 4 fine bone china sinner plates by Lulu Ngie (edition of 30 )

Lulu Ngie focuses on Chinese ink painting and prefers to use simple lines and forms in her figurative works. She also works in oil and watercolour. Today, her ink work is gaining much interest both at home and overseas and is perceived as a potent tool that raises questions about the role of Chinese and East Asian traditions in contemporary art, especially when global events such as art fairs are pushing this medium towards a more homogeneous aesthetic. Majoring in painting, Lulu Ngie, graduated from Hong Kong Art School in 2006.

Faux is delighted to present a unique collection of limited edition Lightboxes by Jayne Dyer

Jayne Dyer is an Australian artist based in Lisbon, Portugal and Sydney, Australia.

My international practice is hybrid, interdisciplinary and socially engaged, and address identity and otherness, particularly in reference to what we culturally and socially valued. Projects are site-specific, collaborative, and increasingly performative.

Two key projects are planned for 2019: This Savage Garden, a series of installations conceived for Adaption & Transition, Bienal do Fotografia, Porto, Portugal, to be exhibited at Palacio de Cristal Jardim; and Art Politic, to be developed at DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) & JSA (Joint Security Area), and exhibited at Suwon Museum of Art, South Korea. These continue my focus on social and environmental states of change and crisis and insinuate a fragile interiority.

Exhibition highlights include the Triennial of Photography, Hamburg, Germany (2018); Foreigners, Bury Art Museum & Sculpture Centre, UK (2017); Tell me something, 2016 Colombo Art Biennale, Sri Lanka; Last Things, Bury Art Museum & Sculpture Centre, UK (2016) in collaboration with British artist Wayne Warren; Sharpness, Anna Pappas Gallery, Australia (2016); It’s closing time for gardens of the West, Palazzo Mora, 2015 Venice Biennale, with Wayne Warren; Ger to Ger, Mongolia National Art Gallery, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia (2013); Unbound, Macquarie University Gallery, Sydney, Australia (2013); The protest that never ends, ARTISTERIUM 5, Tbilisi, Georgia (2012); URS27, Taipei City Urban Redevelopment initiative, Taiwan; Spill, Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts, Taipei, Taiwan (2011); postEDEN, Today Art Museum, Beijing, China (2010); The Recycled Library, Art Space, Mackay, Australia (2009); Spare Room, Elizabeth Bay House Museum, Sydney, Australia (2007).
