final title: See you, See me
It can be a dialogue between you and the artists, the artwork; between you and your companion; between you and environment, even between you and other strangers come to the show.
It's so simple, easy to remember.
See you, See me is also the name of a famous old song. People are familiar with this phrase, so it can arouse sympathy and interest more easily and quickly.

Clarissa Lewis
This is an installation piece called Reflection, the current exhibition at off the map gallery. If you look closely you can see artist Clarissa Lewis & curator Antonia Lancaster reflected in the mirrors. It's a striking piece; you walk into the tiny gallery to find the walls painted black and a cluster of white tree branches taking up most of the space. It's about "thinking," and the branches reminded me of dendrites, or neural networks, but with the mirrors on the ground, also of the way trees have as many roots below ground as branches above; or maybe the tree and its reflection are the two halves of the brain...Go look, if you get a chance, and decide for yourself.

Stephanie Letourneau- Reflections in Watercolor
My passion lies in creating and presenting a fresh view of the world we see and the world within. The picture within the picture fascinates me: the distortion within a reflection that creates a new world; an unexpected perspective; the choice of the part of a whole to present; the colors within a color. Exploring and amplifying these elements make the creation of my work an adventure. http://dragonzride.com/steffie/about.htm

Pei’s Presentation
Anish Kapoor, sculptor, was born on 12 March 1954 in Mumbai, India. He has lived and worked in
Kapoor's pieces are frequently simple, curved forms, usually monochromatic and brightly coloured. Most often, the intention is to engage the viewer, producing awe through their size and simple beauty, evoking mystery through the works' dark cavities, tactility through their inviting surfaces, and fascination through their reflective facades.
Cloud Gate, 2004,
When asked if engagement with people and places is the key to successful public art, Kapoor said,
‘I’m thinking about the mythical wonders of the world, the

Zhang Xiaogang
Zhang Xiaogang (張曉剛 / 张晓刚), a contemporary Chinese symbolist and surrealist painter, was born in the city of Kunming in China's Yunnan province in 1958. He came of age during the 1960s and 70s political upheavals known as the Cultural Revolution, which exerted a certain influence on his painting.
He has made a Bloodline series of paintings, which are often monochromatic, stylized portraits of Chinese people, usually with large, dark-pupiled eyes, posed in a stiff manner deliberately reminiscent of family portraits from the 1950s and 60s.
A Big Family, 1995, Oil on canvas 179 x 229 cm
Referring to the Bloodline paintings, Zhang noted that old photographs "are a particular visual language" and says: "I am seeking to create an effect of 'false photographs' — to re-embellish already 'embellished' histories and lives." He said: "On the surface the faces in these portraits appear as calm as still water, but underneath there is great emotional turbulence. Within this state of conflict the propagation of obscure and ambiguous destinies is carried on from generation to generation."
