ARTISTS / Jessie Siu
Jessie Siu, a postgraduate in philosophy of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, is a self-taught painter. Siu started painting in 2016 and her early works showed a heavy influence of Taoist and Existentialist worldview. Since her encounter with Buddhism in 2018, Buddhist philosophy became a recurring theme for her work.

Ultimately be liberated from the limitations of reality and attain true freedom and happiness.
