Gemma Holzer from 丁丁藝術空間 TING TING ART SPACE

吉瑪 (Gemma Holzer) 的創作媒材多元，有壓克力、油彩、MDF纖維板、紡織品等，她習慣製作大型用色鮮豔的繪畫，充滿活力和卻又平面的特質，因約諧擬線上的網路世界。過度飽和得場景暗指著青春奔放的記憶，通過使用孩童般的意象，引領我們反思進入成年期的危機、以及大眾之間的人際關係，揭示了後數位時代能讓我們產生共鳴的集體孤獨感。宗教對吉瑪的創作也有很深的影響，繪畫的初衷是如教義裡訴說的分享與愛，在作品中也都可以找到隱藏的十字符號。

吉瑪(Gemma Holzer)的作品圍繞著一個胎兒般角色— PinkBoy，這個角色居住在一個當代卡通圖像挪用而成的世界中。PinkBoy既是自畫像，也是個體的線上角色，或者童年的描繪。他身處於人造世界中，去反思當今時代下如何扮演一個人類的有關問題，正如同現代的人與人之間的連結，漸漸被數位科技給取代，畫中的PinkBoy渴望與外界互動，卻又孤立在自己的小世界裡。

Gemma Holzer's creative materials are diverse, ranging from acrylic and oil paints to MDF fiberboard and textiles. She is accustomed to producing large, vibrant paintings that exude energy and yet maintain a flat quality, reflecting the harmonious mimicry of the online world. The excessively saturated scenes allude to the exuberant memories of youth. By using childlike imagery, she leads us to reflect on the crises of entering adulthood and the interpersonal relationships among the public, revealing the collective sense of loneliness that the post-digital era can resonate with. Religion deeply influences Gemma's creations, with the original intention of painting being the sharing and love as described in doctrine, and hidden tenets can be found in her works.

Gemma Holzer's works revolve around a fetus-like character—PinkBoy—who resides in a world created through contemporary cartoon image appropriation. PinkBoy serves as both a self-portrait and an individual online character or depiction of childhood. Placed in an artificial world, he reflects on how to navigate human issues in the present era, much like the modern connections between individuals being gradually replaced by digital technology. In the artwork, PinkBoy yearns to interact with the outside world but finds himself isolated in his own small universe.
