《Red Sensation In Hong Kong》Solo Exhibition by Mana Osawa

這是日本年輕藝術家大沢愛的首次海外個展。我們很高興向香港市民介紹大澤的精彩世界觀，正如展覽的標題所暗示的那樣，她未來將在藝術市場中成長。

在這些系列中，大沢表達的不僅僅是花朵的可愛或其令人著迷的面貌，而是它們代表了大膽（BOLD）和力量，它們巧妙地通過生物體傳播種子，甚至從其他植物中吸收養分賴以為生。大沢打從心裡對這些植物表示敬畏和尊重，從中感受到這種壓倒性的能量。人類不斷破壞的大自然；它也許不會說話，但實際上它擁有大智慧，是在這個時代不斷適應環境、努力生存的奇妙生物，與人類並沒有什麼不同。她希望通過其藝術作品，盡可能讓更多人體會到與自然共存的美好，同時對大自然表達尊重和敬畏之情，而大沢亦堅信她的藝術將成為行動的催化劑，為大自然與人類建立互通的橋樑。

This is the first overseas solo exhibition of a young Japanese artist, Mana Osawa. We are pleased to introduce to the people of Hong Kong the wonderful world view of Osawa, who is expected to grow up in the art market in the future, just as the title of the exhibition implies.

In these series, Mana does not just present the lovely appearance of flowers, but also their boldness and power, as they use some ingenious traps to take advantage of living organisms and spread their seeds, absorbing nutrients even from other plants in order to survive. Mana is in awe and respect of these plants, meanwhile feeling the overwhelming energy. Nowadays, humans continue to destroy nature, it may not speak, but it actually has great intelligence to survive in this generation by adapting the dynamic environment. Mana hopes that people will realize the splendor of coexisting with nature while feeling respect and awe toward them, and the art of Mana will serve as a catalyst for action, building bridges between two of them.
