The Protanopia Series

🇬🇧 A reflection on the artist’s personal life, this series serves as a focus on a perspective of experiences with substance abuse and struggles as a visual painter with acute colour blindness. The painting ‘Sweet Release’ acts as a departure from his previous collection of work. From monotone line based apparitions wielding ice cream, to a brutish subject matter conveyed through vibrant, aboriginal art inspired textures and colours which have all been muted in tone, this body of work showcases the artist’s development of style and signature. His use of multiple eyes are symbolic, representing clairvoyance, omniscience, and gateways into the soul. They depict the subject’s increasing self-awareness and subsequent anxiety, as their questionable actions or concerns, come to light.

🇪🇸 Esta serie, una reflexión sobre la vida personal del artista, sirve como enfoque en una perspectiva de las experiencias con el abuso de sustancias y las luchas como pintor visual con daltonismo agudo. La pintura 'Sweet Release' actúa como una desviación de su colección de trabajos anterior. Desde apariciones monótonas basadas en líneas empuñando helado hasta temas brutales transmitidos a través de texturas y colores vibrantes inspirados en el arte aborigen, todos ellos de tono apagado, este conjunto de obras muestra el desarrollo del estilo y la firma del artista. Su uso de múltiples ojos es simbólico y representa clarividencia, omnisciencia y puertas de entrada al alma. Representan la creciente autoconciencia del sujeto y su posterior ansiedad, a medida que sus acciones o preocupaciones cuestionables salen a la luz.

🇭🇰 這個系列作品是對藝術家個人生活的反思,聚焦於他對物質濫用和抗爭的經歷,以及作為一位視覺畫家患有嚴重色盲的困難。畫作《Sweet Release》是收他先前作品系列啟發的的一個變奏。從以單色線條為基礎的奶油幻影,到通過充滿活力的原住民藝術靈感的質感和色彩來傳達粗野的主題,這一系列作品展示了這藝術家風格的發展。他運用眼睛去意味洞察力、全知和穿透靈魂的入口。從作品主角的不自然的行為或讓浮到臉上的擔憂,作品描繪了他們日益增長的自我意識和隨之而來的焦慮。
