Photograph or painting? This would probably be a question raised by everyone who had seen the works of Wu Jiali. With the excellent painting skills Wu presented the still life in the effect of light, colors and 3 - dimensional space. When you gaze upon the fruits and musical instruments in the paintings, change and movement are frozen in time. Wu deceives the audience with color and brushes. When you are watching the juicy fruits in Wu’s painting, you better bear in mind that it’s a fake world depicted by Wu and stop salivating.

“The selection of harvest and musical instruments as my main theme was based on the memories those I strive to keep; I want to show the joy of harvest and the simple rural rapport. Saxophone’s metallic texture and beautiful shape touched me. I felt as if it is playing music just for me, communicating with resonance in my heart, which greatly aroused my passion for creation. I kept drawing and drawing and resulted in the collection of ‘The Harvest’ and ‘The Western Musical Instruments’.” according to Wu.

Photorealism painting exhibition is rarely seen in Hong Kong. The paintings of Wu Jiali are new and exciting to all Hong Kong art lovers. Wan Fung Art Gallery proudly introduces Wu Jiali, the outstanding photorealism painting artist to Hong Kong.
