Artist Statement

‘I enjoy the way the symbol of the smiley combined with the ethereal nature of the materiality of the piece seems to speak directly to emotions. I have a strong belief that art is neither an object nor an activity, but something that happens in an audience when they interact with something an artist has authored. As such I aim to create scenarios and spaces where that experience, or art can happen. I really hope that somehow the work stands as a symbol of connectedness, unity and happiness. It is a true honour to be able to share it with you in Hong Kong.’ — Stuart SEMPLE
