Trompe l'oeil
by The Cat Street Gallery
Location: The Cat Street Gallery
Artist(s): Emma HACK
Date: 29 Aug - 22 Sep 2013

The Cat Street Gallery presents Emma Hack’s first solo show in Hong Kong. One of the gallery’s latest discoveries, highly sought-after Australian artist Emma Hack presents a survey selection of her intriguing and magically surreal photographic works. With a new take on camouflage, Hack paints the bodies of her models, submerging them into her dreamy, wistful and playful backdrops, giving the alluring perspective on the female figure whilst mining the relationship between painting and photography. Hack's intricate works take anywhere from 8-15 hours to paint, depending on the complexity of the design. An exhausting process for model and subject alike but with breathtaking results, in which she depicts unique Australian flora and fauna, as well as Oriental influences.
