2019 "Into the Bamboo Forest" Solo Exhibition
May 2019 marked a very special chapter in my life. I had the honor to have my first oil painting solo exhibition co-organized by the Shanghai Hongqiao Contemporary Museum and the Shanghai Photography and Art Association, held at the Hongqiao Contemporary Museum in Shanghai, China. It was a moment I have dreamed of and worked on since I was a child - that one day, I would have a solo exhibition that projects my artistic ideology and promotes cultural and social dialogue and harmony.
On the opening day, the exhibition brought together nearly 400 guests from over 15 nationalities, roughly 50 industries, and aged 3-93 years old. Together, they were there to celebrate and support this long-term pursuit of artistic dream, which broke cultural, social and age boundaries. The event created a space and time that fostered a joyous harmony among the participants, and that joy alone was the most memorable and precious.
Into the Bamboo Forest Irene Chang Oil Painting Solo Exhibition embodied the cross-cultural and time-transcending elements in our lives through the simple images of bamboos as a medium of expression. I thought it would be nice to share some photos and video of the exhibition with the viewers online, so that you too can get to know me and my artwork better with just one click away. Thank you for participating in this visual and spiritual journey with me online.
