Artist in Attendance
Bau-Xi Vancouver proudly presents Seeing Through, the new solo exhibition of works from Vancouver based artist Eric Louie.
Louie's signature undulating, foil-like forms are digitally inspired yet entirely analog, painted in oil on canvas with no actual metallic paint. The works themselves are precise and cerebral, and possess an inherent flow; the new compositions lead the eye slowly around the canvas, meandering through memory and time and encouraging a less harried approach to thought and to life.
Artist Statement:
A road trip of the mind, trying to capture moments or encounters along that imagined journey within each painting.
Almost living and yet completely inanimate at the same time, those subjects in each work take the viewer to a different portal or place in time.
Somewhat symbolic and operating in that pseudo-digital realm, where painting attempts to transcribe and find some relationship with that digital world we all live in part-time.
-Eric Louie, 2024
