4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art

Join artist and designer Evi O and 4A Curatorial Program Manager Con Gerakaris for an in conversation exploring public art and  Chinatown.

Join artist and designer Evi O and 4A Curatorial Program Manager Con Gerakaris for an in conversation exploring public art and the Chinatown precinct. The pair will discuss food tourism and Evi&#x27;s points of inspiration for her paintings, specifically how she has transformed them into public artwork. Drawing upon Australian fauna, the conversation will traverse Evi’s stylised depictions of animals and the natural environment. She will discuss Chinatown locality and how she envisions enlivening Sydney’s inner cityscape through her light rail wrap design. Through this work and floor talk, Evi encourages us to ruminate on Australia’s unique biodiversity and celebrate one of Chinatown’s most iconic meals. Evi O is an award-winning multi-disclipinary designer and self-taught artist based in Sydney. With a curious eye and mind, she is constantly exploring and observing her surroundings. Through paint, Evi O continues to explore the use of dominant abstract shapes, although the compositions she presents are broadly suggestive of earthly forms – animal, plant or constructed. The creatures she depicts, and the scenes that she relays are symbolic of people, places and scenes that have left their mark – and this affords her an intimacy with her subjects that infuses the images with emotional resonance. Colour is the cornerstone of Evi O’s practice, and her works are reduced, abstracted, and finely balanced colour works. Running a design practise that exposes her to 3D forms, and spatial design brings a unique dimension to her artworks. The presentation of her works will be an installation of painted walls and 3D forms that pushes the boundary of art and design.
