The feminine perspective acts as a prism, refracting everyday life into a spectrum of subtle and vivid possibilities. This group exhibition brings together five women artists from diverse cultural backgrounds, exploring contemporary female experience as it unfolds between lived reality and the edges of imagination.
The works reveal moments of tenderness and emotional care, expressions of selfhood free from social expectations, and reflections on childhood, memory, and cultural context. Though diverse in approach, they collectively point to the fluid, layered, and evolving nature of female experience.
Rather than defining what it means to be a woman, the exhibition allows multiple voices to coexist, inviting viewers to encounter the richness and complexity of contemporary female perspectives.
This group exhibition brings together seven international artists, presenting animal figures that span time and space: from cats, dogs, and rabbits of everyday companionship, to bears and tigers symbolizing strength and primal desire, and even extinct dinosaurs and imaginary unicorns. These animals are not naturalistic depictions, but anthropomorphized beings imbued with human emotions, gestures, and states of mind, reflecting our own condition within urban life.
This three-person exhibition at Ting Ting Art Space presents Rhys Brown (UK), Ma Dong Li (China), and Cheng Cheng Yi (China). Each explores memory and identity through distinct forms: Brown’s playful “Vegan Gyotaku” toy prints, Ma’s theatrical figurative paintings, and Cheng’s poetic portraits between childhood and solitude. Together, their works invite us to reflect on how memories are shaped, worn, and transformed in today’s visual culture.
This July, Ting Ting Art Space presents a dual exhibition featuring Australian artist Nathan Paddison and Dutch artist Gemma Holzer, two distinct voices united by their bold use of color and emotional intensity.
Nathan’s canvases roar with raw instinct and dark humor, layered with rough brushstrokes and cryptic wordplay. His work is both a personal refuge and a poetic response to a turbulent life.
Gemma, in contrast, paints vivid worlds inhabited by PinkBoy—a childlike alter ego born of memory, isolation, and the digital age. Her saturated colors and soft gradients veil the fragile threshold between innocence and disillusionment.
Though their paths and practices diverge, both artists harness the power of color to tell untamed, deeply personal stories. Together, they invite us into a dream that refuses to be tamed.

Ting Ting Art Space is proud to present two distinctive and contemplative solo exhibitions in May 2025. British artist Dylan Gill and Italian artist Giorgio Tentolini will showcase their works on the first and second floors respectively, using the contrasting languages of painting and sculpture to explore themes of perception, presence, and visual experience.
On the first floor, “Traces of Unseen” by Dylan Gill offers an immersive look into the artist’s signature multi-perspective portraiture. Raised in a lively working-class household in London, Gill found in painting a quiet yet resolute form of self-expression. Through layered viewpoints, elegant color palettes, and rhythmic compositions, he reconstructs the human figure and challenges conventional ways of seeing.
Upstairs, Italian artist Giorgio Tentolini—renowned in the European contemporary art scene for his wire mesh sculptures—presents “The Lights Between.” His work blends light, structure, and classical aesthetics to search for the essence of image between abstraction and figuration. Using finely hand-cut wire layered over monochrome backgrounds, Tentolini creates portraits, statues, and architectural forms purely through the interplay of light and shadow. Viewed closely, the surface dissolves into intricate hexagonal grids; from a distance, ghostly forms subtly emerge.
Together, these two exhibitions bridge painting and sculpture, the UK and Italy, the flat and the dimensional. We warmly invite you to experience the space between visibility and mystery—where light and form quietly reveal themselves.
The Ting Ting Art Space will hold an annual solo exhibition of Spanish artist Moisés Yagües from January to February 2025.
Moisés is widely acclaimed for his unique painting style, excelling in painting, printmaking, and image creation. His works are characterized by warmth and humor, often featuring round-headed characters as subjects. They are simple, clear, fresh, and harmonious, presenting rich narratives and imagination on the canvas. Common elements in his paintings include iconic large-headed figures, ladders, flowers, and steel cables, resembling scenes that explore the myriad changes of the human heart. His works not only focus on character imagery and storytelling but also frequently touch on important social issues such as immigration and borders, making them deeply inspirational and thought-provoking.

"To me, every color is the same, but beneath each lies an infinity of hues, containing the depths of all my thoughts." — Chun Wu Liang
The solo exhibition “Visualizing the Metaphors” by artist Chun Wu Liang will be showcased in late September at Ting Ting Art Space. Chun Wu Liang’s paintings are uniquely refined, characterized by a mysterious and profound beauty. His work has been highly praised by Camilo José Cela, the Spanish Nobel Prize-winning author, who once described Liang’s style as “feathers stained by light and shadow,” noting that his art soars across the canvas with lines of peace—delicate and mysterious, yet immediately understood by the viewer. This delicate balance forms the core of Chun Wu Liang’s artistic vision, where he skillfully creates tension between the real and the abstract, between the tangible and the intangible.

\The “Visualizing the Metaphors” exhibition focuses on female portraits, portraying them with unique narratives. The women in his paintings are not the objects of observation ; rather, they are active storytellers of their own narratives. Liang does not use professional models in his work, preserving a spirit of innocence and authenticity—an artistic goal he has pursued throughout his life. In his paintings, women are not just figures but symbols of emotion and thought, reflecting purity, nobility, and romance.
Liang often employs deep color tones in the backgrounds of his paintings, creating a visual space that also serves as an abstract void. The contrast between the abstract backdrop and the delicate, resilient female forms creates a powerful sense of tension, showcasing an intricate balance between fragility and strength. The women in his paintings, skin was as soft and luminous as fine porcelain, exude both resilience and gentle power, standing out vividly against the deep, abstract backgrounds, appearing more alive.

Chun Wu Liang’s artistic philosophy emphasizes the balance between appearance and abstraction, using subtle metaphors to interpret the external and internal meanings of his subjects. His pursuit of art lies not only in aesthetic form but in the exploration of the extension and resonance between seeing and perceiving. Each painting contains delicate emotions and deep thoughts, embodying the pure essence and complex nature of femininity. His works offer viewers a sublime, romantic, and thought-provoking artistic experience.

From August 3 to 25 this year, Ting Ting Art Space will host the exhibition “Greedy Dopamine: A Solo Exhibition by Shih Siao-Mo,” showcasing her previously unseen works. Departing from her usual monochromatic palette, this exhibition will present her explosive and unpredictable creativity through high-saturation visuals.
The exhibition focuses on two major series: “Greedy Dopamine” and “Radicals.” The highly visual “Greedy Dopamine” series features geometric distortions and intense, saturated colors, creating a constantly shifting, fluid repetition that symbolizes dopamine’s powerful drive in stimulating emotions and desires. The main works in this series range from size 150 to 800, with the full-frame images offering an extended sense of expansion, allowing viewers to experience dopamine’s tangible, dynamic growth. These pieces exhibit strong visual impact and depth, especially when displayed in public spaces.

The Bliss of Desire Molecules 慾望分子的極樂, 石小墨 Shih Siao Mo, 2023, Acrylic on canvas, 194 x 384 cm
The “Radicals” series represents Shih Siao-Mo’s recent exploration of “tracing back to the origins.” Inspired by the character practice books she used as a child, this series delves into the strokes and combinations of Chinese characters, transforming them into concrete symbols and meanings that ultimately become cultural carriers. Shih views radicals as semantic symbols and attempts to reinterpret the linear history of character development. Through the technique of canvas patchwork, she constructs paintings imbued with the meanings of these symbols.

From Strokes to Philosophy 從筆畫到哲學的旅程, 石小墨 Shih Siao Mo, 2024, Acrylic on canvas, 180 x 120 cm
The “Objects/Events” series serves as a visual side story to this exhibition, stemming from Shih Siao-Mo’s reflections on the insignificant events and moments of daily life. For instance, in “Absurd Daily Object Fantasies,” she captures the moment when papers accidentally fall from a height. This series explores objects not only as static backgrounds that set the atmosphere but also as dynamic participants that trigger events, capturing concrete occurrences through abstract forms.
