Ark-Association of Macau Art (the “AAMA”) exclusively presents an art program entitled “Art Power Jamming”, under the theme of “Friendship Chapter”. The program, which is sponsored by the Macao Foundation, and supported by the Creative Industries Promotion Association of St. Lazarus Church District and 10 Fantasia features seven unique shows presented by eight Macau artists (members of AAMA) with diverse backgrounds. Media and different forms of art act as a unique language spoken by artists. This art program unites eight individual Macau talents who will uncover their own stories with their unique “languages” for self-interpretation and feeling expression.
This exhibition series not only creates an exchange platform for different artists who embody different talents and artistic skills but also allows the general public and tourists to appreciate their unique artworks at the show venue. All artworks embrace the same goal–that is to express the vitality of art.
The artist explains: “To start with a universal question: ‘Who I am?’ From the family perspective, I am a daughter, a sister, a wife, and a daughter-in-law. From a society perspective, I am an administration executive, a teacher. But from an inner perspective, how is myself? Through the process of this series of art creation, I dig out my feelings, struggles, likes, thoughts, dreams, and find out more about ‘real’ me. It doesn’t matter whether a woman is flower or vase, I am who I am. Ladies, love yourself and make your dreams come true.”
Born in Macau, Yaya studied business administration in college and obtained a master’s degree. Starting from 2000, Yaya started learning sketching and oil painting.
