Huang Jie Solo Exhibition

50 Moganshan Lu Taxi Printout
Huang Jie's paintings are composed of a wide variety of patterns, using female figurative shapes as her canvas within a canvas. In some of her pieces, she carefully paints a material-looking pattern in the background, contrasted with a grayed silhouette of a figure. Within the figure, she paints all sorts of objects and patterns, from ribbons and flowers to figures and stick figures to spots and checkers, etc, creating a visually pleasing effect.
In other pieces, Huang Jie paints more plain muted gray, pink or white backgrounds with the figure-silhouettes filled also with a variety of objects and patterns – including cats, plants and even eyeballs, and one of which even looks like a part of a Matisse painting. On the top of the painting, Huang paints a single flower, clearly contrasting the pattern of the flower to the patterns within her human-silhouette canvases. In some of her earlier pieces, Huang abandoned her figurative altogether, and she painted patterns, which when combined together composed a larger abstract shape. Huang Jie was selected as one of the top 25 emerging artists in China at the Chinese Art Prize 2007.
