SIT - 9

May 18th - June 19th, 2010

In the eastern parts of the world 9 is a lucky number. To SIT it means new found luck. It was a strange encounter with a goldfish in Hong Kong that made him feel lucky again.
Lost in the dark realms of this city his heart bleeding from a broken relationship and his vision blurred by cheap Chinese whisky SIT stumbled across a goldfish with enormous eyes in a shop window. Hypnotized by this eerie image he saw this goldfish transform into a 9 and heard a deep voice whispering 'follow number 9 and luck will come your way again'. In the wake of this story his wallet was gone of course but knew he had struck gold. A better tomorrow was on its way. Those familiar with SIT know this story could only happen to a joyful and free spirit like him. Currently residing in Sao Paulo, Brasil he masterminded 9 exclusive works paying hommage to his new lucky charm, the goldfish. Where black has turned into gold and life has a better tomorrow. Jinyu to all of you.

對SIT來說,9意味著他重新找到的幸運。這次展覽名為<< 9 >>, 是荷蘭畫家SIT利用9幅畫作表達他如何由人生低潮重新找到希望和快樂。
曾經在黑暗中迷失的SIT,有著一段令他心碎的愛情。到處遊歷是為了擺脫已往的不快經歷和珈琑。早前到香港旅遊更經歷一段金魚奇緣。一晚,在香港這繁榮鬧市,抽過幾根香煙,喝過幾杯廉價中國威士忌,SIT的視覺開始變得模糊,隔著一家商店櫥窗,如幻似真的看到一雙金魚的大眼睛,這金魚更慢慢變成了數字9。未幾,SIT聽到一把低沉的聲音跟他耳語,說 "跟隨9這數字,幸運便會回來你身邊。"
在這夢幻故事過後,當SIT清醒過來,他的錢包不見了,但是他知道他已得到猶如拾了金牌般的靈感,一個更美好的明天就在他前方。
熟悉SIT的朋友知道這種奇遇只會發生在SIT這個充滿歡欣和自由的靈魂身上,現時旅居於巴西聖保羅,SIT運用他自成一格的美術風格,繪畫出九幅幸運金魚油畫。東方的吉祥物,佩上西方流行的藝術風格,加上SIT流麗的筆觸,栩栩如生的金魚活現眼前。當沉鬱的黑色亦已變成了燦爛的金色,生命也有個更美好的明天。願金魚與你同在。
