About
Stephanie Sin received her BA (Fine Art) from RMIT University in 2008 and her MVA (Studio Arts) from HKBU in 2013. As a painter, exploring on contemporary aesthetics stereotypes, paints from found images on the internet and photos from others, which have subsequently been altered using computer applications. Influence from voids in living environments draws from fragmentations of individuals to collective routines and insinuates the paradox of life in her works.
Stephanie was the founder of collaborative experimental art groups of Rental United and POWWOW, which focuses on happenings, performances and art extensions to body and mind practices. Awarded Impression . Eileen Chang . Inaugural Painting Jury Award in 2010. Participated in the Artist in Residence in Taiwan and London. Public art pieces collected by the MTR Art in Architecture Project. Private collections from over the United States, United Kingdom and Hong Kong.
Now, she is a part-time lecturer at Hong Kong Arts School / RMIT University, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Hong Kong Baptist University.
冼朗兒於2008年獲墨爾本皇家理工大學美術學士學位， 2013年獲香港浸會大學藝術碩士（工作室藝術）學位。身為畫家，她透過探索當代美學刻板印象，將網路蒐集的圖像與他人照片結合顏料創作，並運用電腦應用程式進行後續改動。生活環境中的虛空感啟發其創作，從個體的碎片化到集體的慣性，作品暗喻生命的悖論。她創立了實驗性藝術團體「Rental United」與「POWWOW」，專注於行為藝術與表演創作。2010年榮獲首屆「印象·張愛玲繪畫評審獎」。曾參與台灣與倫敦駐村藝術家計劃，公共藝術作品獲港鐵建築藝術計劃收藏，私人藏家遍及美國、英國及香港。現於香港藝術學院、香港中文大學及香港浸會大學兼任講師。
