Artist Statement

This sculpture, titled Cat attributed to Shen Zhou, is a paper mache crafted from recycled rice paper, incorporating drafts from my early studies of Chinese ink painting. Inspired by the iconic cat imagery of Ming Dynasty painter Shen Zhou, this sculpture transforms the two-dimensional nature of traditional ink painting into a three-dimensional form. Hand-painted with ink, the sculpture also reflects themes of transformation and renewal, serving as a testament to my creative journey.

這件名為《仿沈周貓圖》的雕塑，使用回收的宣紙製成，並融入了我早期學習水墨畫時的草稿。靈感源自明代畫家沈周筆下的的貓咪形象，這件作品將傳統水墨畫的平面性轉化為立體形式，並以水墨繪製圖案，作品體現了轉化與重生的主題，同時也紀錄了我個人的創作旅程。

傅雅妍現為多媒體設計師，於香港城市大學修讀創意媒體碩士課程。並曾跟隨梁巨廷老師學習水墨技法。其創作範疇包括水墨畫、數碼繪畫及立體設計，作品多從大自然和動物出發，專注傳統文化及數碼技術的可能性。

Catherine Fu is a multimedia designer and MA student of Creative Media. Catherine also followed ink master Leung Kui Ting to practice Chinese ink techniques. Her work explores the intersection of traditional Chinese ink culture and digital art, aiming to inspire dialogue about the dynamic relationship between nature and technology.
