Giant Waves Engulf the City (Tsunami), 2020.

Oil on Canvas, 24 inch * 30 inch with depth 1.5 inch

 

In the Painting, the Giant Waves are colored in cerulean blue, the royal blue, and the turquoise blue. The black lines shading the blue indicate the movement of the waves. On the left lower quadrant, there are a crescent moon standing vertically and tilted slightly, a sunrise in red, and a sunset in yellow. It is an exaggerated expression of the power of the Giant Waves who could swallow moon and sun, making them under.

 

At the top, the upside down Ark is colored as yellow and pink as it moves in the painting. The Giant Waves turn it over.

 

There is a face of a woman facing left, on the right; with a tear (the red dot) below her eye. The woman represents Artist W who is watching and weeping while the Giant Waves manage taking over the City.

 

After all, this piece of artwork “Giant Waves Engulf the City” is an expression of depicting Covid-19 as Giant Waves devastating the city/ the society. Meanwhile, it also shows the fear Artist W is experiencing during this crisis, and her helplessness.
