Alone time explores introspection from four distinctly differing lenses. Xinyu Zhou and Jin Han Lee use their brushes as a way of depicting moments of quiet contemplation. In Jin’s, abstract painting becomes a language through which she is able to communicate the unspoken emotions of quotidian life and in Zhou’s paintings, she depicts visages of women from her family – the washed out blue palette suggestive of a past she’s gradually uncovering in paint. For Rebecca K Halliwell Sutton and Jenine Marsh, they use sculpture to understand the trails we leave behind. For Rebecca, sheets of aluminium are hammered into organic forms, the marks revealing remnants of her tools at work, and in Jenine’s, she uses objects representative of exchange, here delicately assembled sculptures of flowers and coins become stiffened in synthetic rubber or else melted down, revealing their history.
