Exhibit Introduction 画展介绍
This painting series concentrates on the Daci Temple, which sits amongst Taigooli. Helena is most attracted to subjects that she regards as ones that people are normally not noticing or paying minimal attention to. Daci Temple contrasts with Taigooli and the surrounding areas with regards to consumption. The temple is like a place of refuge, at least for Helena, and there are many sources of inspiration in the obscure details.
For example, the candles that are burnt as an offering are one particular subject used in the paintings. Once the candles have completely burnt out, they leave a smokey shadow. One can ponder whether the wishes laid upon the candles are still embedded in the shadows that remain.
