SUMMARY:Exhibition: Tides Within
DESCRIPTION:January 5 – May 4\nExhibition: Tides Within\nRichmond Cultural Centre Annex\n7660 Minoru Gate\nTides Within brings together Richmond-based artists Fanny BokYin Tang and Debra Zhou\, whose practices share a deep desire to harmonize inner freedom with the rhythms of the natural world. Tang’s surreal seascapes reflect on environmental fragility and Buddhist teachings\, blending playful marine life with symbolic coral forms. Zhou’s abstract watercolour landscapes are rooted in her experience of pregnancy and early motherhood\, evoking the resonance between the creation of life and the cosmos beyond. Using water as a central metaphor for connection and impermanence\, both artists offer introspective visual languages shaped by the aesthetics of Chinese ink brush painting.\nWebsite: https://www.richmondartgallery.org/tides-within
