Girl in Causeway Bay

Size: 118 x 92 cm (46.5 x 36 inches)
Medium: Oil on Stretched Canvas

Painted with the strange colours of photographic film negatives in mind, where skin turns green, shadows become light, and familiar things suddenly feel slightly unreal.

I liked how a negative image can make someone look both present and distant at the same time — as if you recognise them, but can’t fully reach them.

The black splashes and wandering lines interrupt the portrait rather than decorate it. I wanted the painting to feel unstable and alive, closer to a passing moment in a crowded city than a fixed portrait.

Causeway Bay is loud, bright, busy, and constantly moving.
The girl seems somewhere else entirely.

Painted on stretched canvas. Ready to hang.
