Jayden Chen, 9 yrs old
Jayden Chen, a 9-year-old prodigy, possesses an extraordinary talent for painting. Despite facing challenges associated with autism, his artistic prowess is nothing short of astonishing.
Since the age of 5, Jayden has shown a keen interest in painting. For him, painting is not only a means of expressing his emotions but also a bridge to communicate with the world. His works are filled with unique imagination and sensitivity, each painting seemingly an expression of his innermost emotions.
According to Jayden's mother, he has a great passion for painting and often engages in it daily. Sometimes he references other artworks, while other times he depicts characters from cartoons or toys. Jayden has his own preferences in painting; for instance, he dislikes adhering to the instructions of teachers and instead unleashes his imagination to depict things he likes. He conceptualizes while painting, processing the images he sees in his mind to create his own artworks.
Jayden's mother hopes he can continue to develop in the field of painting, yet she worries about the future, fearing the day when he might lose interest in it. To facilitate Jayden's growth in painting, they sought help from a teacher last year to lay a foundation, but the teacher returned to their home country after a short period. Now Jayden continues his artistic journey on his own.
His artworks vary in style, sometimes vibrant and abstract, sometimes delicately depicting natural scenes, and sometimes simple outlines without embellishment. With his brushstrokes and colors, he creates vibrant worlds that immerse viewers.
Although Jayden may encounter difficulties in verbal communication, his brush speaks volumes about his innermost feelings. His works not only showcase his artistic talent but also convey his emotions and thoughts from deep within.
Through this art exhibition, we have the opportunity to delve deeper into Jayden's world, appreciating his unique and beautiful artistic creations. Let's applaud this young artist and cheer him on for his future creative endeavors!
This art exhibition brings together the works of four outstanding young artists. Many of the works were created during the pandemic, reflecting the artists' personalized and fragmented perspectives and experiences about current life. The intention of the exhibition is to encourage audiences to put aside preconceptions and biases and discover a profound emotional connection with the world through the medium of art.
The works displayed in this exhibition, regardless of their scale, form, or mediums, all express a heartfelt concern and care for the current state of things from different perspectives. From art to current life, we aim to convey warm and healing emotions, as well as an inclusive attitude. This exhibition not only enables viewers to experience art from different perspectives and cultural stand point, and also boosts culture exchanges at the same time by introducing these outstanding Chinese young artists to the Canadian main stream culture.
