"The color red has always been a hue I've shied away from. It's a color that is symbolic of so many different things in different cultures - power, human vulnerability, and love. My art practice has recently taken a shift towards saturation, building layer upon layer of transparency and marks until there is a whole visual universe to dive into. The red canvases born from this new methodology of painting are an ode to the enormity of motherhood and the legacy that forms from the endless love and devotion that mothers pour into those they care for." - Christina Kwan
