Welcome to Surreal Sentiments’ Gallery by Andrea Ng.
Artist Statement:
“I use the acrylic medium and I paint in the style of abstract realism, using the canvas as a pictorial space to express my obsessions with the different psychological states of the mind. In particular, those of the diminished consciousness that drift between dream and reality, so as to tell a story from within those deep, and often dark places. I find a delicate, soft, and beautiful existence in the solitary shadows that lay hidden in our worlds. Whether they are thoughts or secrets hidden, forgotten, or abandoned, I express these silent tableaus from the mind and elsewhere, in my work. Hopefully, they will touch another soul who views my artwork and take them to a place hidden within themselves,…or beyond. I pride myself in allowing the viewer to visually syphon and draw out an interpretation for their own selves for each painting, while enjoying all the thoughts, inspiration, and psychological feelings that I have put into it myself. Thus, sharing the meanings of my art pieces with the viewers.”-Andrea Ng
