NEXT TO YOU
BY SHIPEI WANG
Shipei Wang is a painter and screen printer whose art speaks volumes about the significance of our everyday lives. In her unique style, she fuses East Asian and Western motifs to create a visual language that beautifully captures lost and rediscovered identities, love, lust, betrayal, and revenge. According to Shipei, her approach to painting is a direct translation of literary storytelling into visual narration, and nothing reflects this better than her recent piece, Next To You (2020). Painted onto silk, the work captures a subtle moment between two people, creating an intimate portrait of routine domesticity. Through dreamlike renderings and the placement of the human form, Next To You draws the viewer in, reminding us that the banalities of our daily routines are often the ones that carry the most significant meaning.
