Dappled Light and Hazy Shadows Characterize Clio Sze To’s Dynamic Paintings

Clio Sze To's upcoming solo exhibition, "Échos," features a collection of oil paintings inspired by her walks through Paris. The artist translates the visual patterns and textures she encounters into impressionistic works that evoke a sense of contemplative exploration.

Sze To's artistic process involves capturing photographs during her walks, which then serve as the foundation for stylized composite paintings. While passersby are present in some pieces, the primary focus is on the interplay of changing seasons and time of day, particularly the shifting light of dusk, the glow of street lamps, and the patterns of shadows filtering through trees.

The exhibition's title, "Échos," signifies something that travels outward and returns transformed, contrasting with the initial concept of "Bulles" (bubbles), which represented a self-contained space reflecting light. The exhibition will be on view at Crèvecœur in Paris from September 4 to October 10.
