Amy Hui Li (b.1997, Guangzhou, China) lives and works in London. She received an MA in Painting from the Royal College of Art in the summer 2023 after a BA in Fine Art from Goldsmiths, University of London in 2020.
Her paintings explore a deep self-reflection of wounded emotions, personal memories, fragility and vulnerability. The journey of self-discovery and learning how to deal with a broken heart has become the focus of her practice. Working with a restrained palette, each colour represents a stage in time: red is the present, blue is the past, and other colours such as white symbolises a positive message to the future – a beautiful unknown that has yet to be discovered.
Amy Hui Li has exhibited internationally, with recent group exhibitions including: Airy Dish, River Art Gallery, Taichung (2024); Theater of Energies, Arsenal Contemporary, New York (2024); Can you Afford to 'Pay' Attention?, Heart Lab, London (2024); and London Calling (2023) and _Worlds Beyond _(2024) at Unit, London.
