Sin Sin Man Marks 70th Birthday with Solar Return at Sin Sin Fine Art, Hong Kong
Sin Sin Man, a Hong Kong artist and the founder of Sin Sin Fine Art established in 2003, is showcasing her exhibition titled Solar Return at her gallery, which is accessible by appointment only. The exhibition is centered around three significant numbers: 70 (her age this October), 23 (the years since the gallery's inception), and 49 (the total of small sculptural pieces created intuitively). The number 49 relates to the I Ching, symbolizing transformation. Featured works include Ge, Balancing, Interplay, and Mirror, crafted from mixed media on calico fabric, incorporating hand-pleating and layered paint. Sin Sin also launched an atelier in Central, Hong Kong, in 1998 and has curated over 100 exhibitions that intertwine art, design, and textiles with the five elements.
