Featuring recent paintings by Surrey-based artist Lion Nie.
Immigrant artists from all over the world bloom in Metro Vancouver. “Art is true temperament,” and inevitably, artists reset their creative paradigm and language, projecting and continuing their original creativity, formats and media after they settle down in Vancouver. Canada’s unique and diverse artistic wealth continues to write a unique and diverse art history for the Canada’s Pacific Coast.
Artist Lion Nie’s arrival has injected new energy into this development. He made the symbol he used, the Möbiusband, and his original expression more vivid and dramatic, either making it the protagonist that fills the canvas, or using it to define the tone and extension of the meaning of the painting. The Möbiusband often is considered to be the creative source of the infinity symbol “∞.” If we walk on it, the journey will go back and forth endlessly and regenerate… infinite territory and unpredictable encounters.
