Artist captures universal experience in body paintings

"Like many of us, the artist also tried to seek consolation and inner peace amid the endless chaos," said the curator. "The painting captured her effort and the bittersweet feelings she experienced in 2020."

To enable viewers to interact with Quarles' work in a more intimate manner, Rao decorated the galleries with carpet, respectively in crimson, red, and pink.

Apart from echoing the hue featured in a gallery's showpieces, the fluffy carpet and its color can help better connect the viewer with Quarles' work, the curator explained.

Running parallel with Quarles' solo at the museum is The Endless Garment: Research Station, an exhibit co-curated by Wu Dongxue and Jeppe Ugelvig.
