Essud Fungcap: Trilogy Framed Oil on Board
Artist: Essud Fungcap Title: TrilogyMedium: oil on board, framedDate: 2005 Full size: 29 x 26 1/2 inches Image size: 21 x 18 1/2 inches * Biography: * Essud paints to excite, to calm, to stir emotion with a sensitivity to color and form influenced by a lifetime in the Caribbean. He acknowledges the contributions that a bicultural upbringing, a Chinese father and a Haitian mother, have made to his sense of wonder of the world around him. He is constantly striving to inject aspects of surealism in his work and at the same time convey a certain quiet, peaceful tropical style that reinforces our sense of "being there". Essud believes that critical study of color and form for each individual work are essential, and consequently his work always undergoes several transformations before reaching the point where he feels that it is ready for presentation. Music is an integral part of Essud's life and he finds many parallels in the works of great Latin, jazz and classical composers as he searches for the natural rhythm of his own work. To that end, he sees himself as a composer of sorts, bringing together different mediums, ideas and emotions to create harmony and bring "life" to his paintings. In his own words, "A life without art would bring despair, but art without the life it seeks to represent would be unbearable." * * Received from: http://www.thecollectionshop.mobi/xq/ASP/Artist.Essud_Fungcap/qx/artist_profile.htm *
