Interpreting Discomfort Oil Paint

Fine Arts and Art Installation Design Interpreting Discomfort Oil Paint by YunFen Wang Interpreting Discomfort is a series of oil paintings about personal space and social pressure. The works show hands and eyes in staged scenes that recreate everyday moments of unease. Caring actions can bring people closer, yet too much attention can also cause discomfort. The paintings combine two techniques. Indirect painting builds a black and white base that is then glazed with color. Direct painting applies mixed color straight onto the surface. The series is made with oil paint on canvas and wood panel, and it is shown in galleries as a starting point for conversation.
