I have wanted to see Hamas Hui for a long time and this time my wish came true.
Soft light pours into the quiet air.
You are struck by a strange and pleasant sense of discomfort, as if time has stopped and you can also feel the time before.
The work used on the poster, "Room with a Young Woman with Her Back to the Viewer," is a good balance of straight lines and curves, giving the impression of softness and yet tension.
The balance of light and dark and lines in the subdued color palette is haunting.
There are moments like that in everyday life, but I feel like it is similar to that kind of feeling.
The Danish paintings in the first half of the exhibition also had a wonderful air of enchantment.
I think my stay was very long because I watched it over and over again.
All of the paintings, including Constantin Hanson's "Girl with a Fruit Basket," had an airy quality that drew the eye to their strength in softness.
