Chie Yoshii
Mysterious imagery in surreal oil paintings by Chie Yoshii. On the one hand, the brushstrokes and brightness of her panel remind of traditional Flemish paintings, in which the details, the quality of shading, the softness of the complexion of each character are masterfully presented. On the other hand, subtle symbolism and a compelling sense of the presence of figures bring an invisible sense of modernity to the atmosphere of the painting. The mixture of human psychology and mythical archetypes connects conflicting elements such as novelty and nostalgia, innocence and sensuality, as well as strength and fragility, reflecting the complexity of our psyche.
