There is a sense in Wang Yan Hui’s paintings that there are people nearby, familiar individuals, but out of frame. His paintings contain the artefacts of shared moments – a picnic laid out by a pond and kites flying in the distance – suggesting that these items hold some secret meaning. Wang’s Memories series is done in green and grey tones, conjuring faded recollections touched by melancholia. He invites us into private, intimate moments, leaving us guessing as to the thoughts of the unseen occupants.
