Yang Liu, On loss (Art (ATEP 2017))

This series is based on a personal experience of loss and mortality. The emotions of what one goes through after the loss of a loved one, the grief, the depression, the loneliness, the anxiety, and the acceptance. When something like this happens in your life I feel that these emotions and feelings can't be captured in a literal manner. Inspired by the Abstract Expressionism movement - I've chosen to respond in an abstract way - expressing these emotions in the pure and basic forms of colours and shapes.
