Amy Hui Li

B.1997 Based in London, UK

 

Introduction

Interacting with a world beyond the frame of the canvas, Amy Hui Li’s work sits at the intersection between painting, sculpture, and installation. She explores the body both literally and metaphorically through an abstract visual language, with her fabric forms evoking veins and blood vessels as well as the emotional processes of healing and repair. Repetitively tearing and reshaping home-made fabrics, Li expresses fragility, brokenness and a drive towards intimacy.
