Haoyun Erin Zhao is a multidisciplinary artist based in San Francisco, California, primarily working in painting, printmaking, and installation. Rooted in her study of Eastern and Western Philosophy, Zhao's artistic inquiry delves into the intangibility of perception, manifested through the physicality of her chosen materials. Paying particular attention to the interaction of light, color, and form, Zhao uses transparency and abstraction to emulate the ethereal and elusive nature of human consciousness. Zhao derives inspiration from multicultural influence, literature, nature, everyday environment, and more.
Zhao is the recipient of Swatch Art Peace Hotel Residency (Shanghai, China), Golden Foundation for the Arts (New York, U.S.), Meta Open Arts (Burlingame, U.S.), Edition/Basel Residency (Basel, Switzerland), Kala Art Institute Residency (Berkeley, U.S), etc. The artist’s work has been showcased at renowned venues including the Exploratorium Museum, de Young Museum, and the International Print Center New York. Her work is in collections such as Google, IBM, LinkedIn, ICBC, Meta, Kaiser Permanente, Boston Children’s Hospital, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Children’s Hospital of Orange County, and numerous private collections.
趙皓芸 (Haoyun Erin Zhao)是現居舊金山的華裔藝術家,主要從事抽象繪畫、版畫以及裝置藝術的創作。她的作品理念源於東西方哲學的研究,通過材料的物理性來探索感知的無形性。趙尤其關注光、色、形的相互作用,借助材質的透明度和抽象手法來表達人類意識的虛幻和難以捉摸的本質。趙的很多創作靈感來源於她多元文化的成長背景、東西方文學、哲學、自然、日常環境等方面。
趙曾多次受邀參加國際藝術家駐地項目,其中包括斯沃琪和平飯店藝術中心(中國上海)、高登藝術基金會Golden Foundation for the Arts(美國紐約)、Meta Open Arts(美國)、Edition/Basel版畫駐地計畫(瑞士巴塞爾)、Kala Art Institute(美國伯克利)等等。趙的作品曾在Exploratorium Museum、笛洋美術館de Young Museum和International Print Center New York等知名美術館和藝術機構展出。她的作品被收藏於谷歌Google、IBM、領英LinkedIn、加拿大帝國商業銀行CIBC、Meta、凱撒醫療集團、波士頓兒童醫院、斯隆-凱特琳癌症中心、橙縣兒童醫院等,以及眾多私人收藏。
