The most basic desire of all animals is to live and exist, in other words, is love and unsatisfied.
Historically, people like to use “apple” as a symbol of “desire”, such as Adam’s apple in “The Holy Bible”; and in a Chinese movie named “Apple”, it presented a situation of Chinese workers facing their desire in the society.

Profound – Works by David Sheekwan
Albergue SCM and ALBcreativeLAB and Arts Empowering Lab are presenting the exhibition Profound – Works by David Sheekwan, till July, 2021 at the art space At Light. The exhibition is separated into two parts. The first one is held in the gallery At Light, and the second part takes place in Albergue SCM. It features around 25 oil and ink paintings that David Sheekwan created recently in his home in Zhongshan.
The paintings in the exhibition feature Sheekwan’s minimalist and monochromatic style in subdued colors. A series of paintings incorporate twigs, branches, and pieces of wood and sand to give them different textures and highlight the different shades of colors and light. By placing these simple materials on a flat background, the artist turns something ordinary into something extraordinary with this collage of everyday objects. Picasso and Braque invented modern collage by incorporating real objects into their paintings. David Sheekwan had been curious about the cosmos since he was a child and this is a recurrent theme in his artistic creations. The cosmos is so dark and mysterious and he wants to explore it, to see how humans exist in the gigantic cosmos. His abstract ink and wash paintings show his unique observation of colors, lines, and proportions. His painting style is simple but mysterious–his paintings always leave a space to make people think.
When: May 15–June 26, 2021
Where: At Light, 1 Pátio do Padre Narciso, Macau and Gallery A2, Albergue SCM, 8 Calçada da Igreja de S. Lázaro, Macau
