🐉Su Su🐉 Su Su ( @paintingbysusu )’s stunning painting ‘Empty Vessel - Jade,’ 2022 is on view apart of Kathy Huang ( @_kathyhuang_ )’s Los Angeles iteration of Wonder Women💚💚 The figure in the work is in a state of transition. Her one jade-colored hand holding a dragon’s leg is transforming into a paint brush. In the artists words, By blending my self-image with references from Chinese art history, such as dragons and porcelain vases, my works speak to the complicated experiences I had as an female artist immigrating to the United States. The porcelain like female figure showing fragility. The green colored hands referencing the shade of color of Jade. At the same time in American pop culture, green color could speak for wicked, witch, alien, mystery etc. Also as an immigrant My residency ID card is aka the green card and have a A number short for alien number. The dragon brush is to expressing my background. Family tradition banner has a dragon for my clan. Family members and myself is doing or carrying art as a pride. 💕💕 ‘Empty Vessel - Jade’, 2022 Oil on canvas 48 x 36 inches ‘Wonder Women’, curated by Kathy Huang is on view at our North Orange gallery in Los Angeles until October 22nd. 🌞 📸: Joshua White ( @joshuawhitephotography ) — #susu #wonderwomenla #kathyhuang #jeffreydeitch
