About The Artwork
A cornucopia of smiley flowers burst forth in a playful homage to Murakami's iconic style. Each flower is a canvas unto itself, with collages from found media ranging from Roy Lichtenstein to fashion images, layered with original paintings by Gary Low (Satori, Sakura and Geishas). The smiley flowers exude an aura of simplicity and joy, their cartoonish faces radiate with positivity. In contrast, the petals and smiles offer a rich tapestry of symbolism in a kaleidoscope of visual storytelling. The main smiley flower is adorned with collage-like compositions made from scrapbook candies, arranged in a rainbow spectrum of colors. These sugary confections juxtapose sweetness with depth, inviting one to contemplate the complexities of desire, pleasure, and indulgence. The adjacent smiley flowers delve into the realm of feminism, showcasing empowering imagery that celebrates the strength and resilience of women. These images serve as a reminder of the power of art to provoke thought and challenge societal norms. In Gary Low's artwork of smiley flowers, beauty and meaning converge in a mesmerizing dance of color and form. Through his playful yet thought-provoking exploration of themes and symbols, the artist invites viewers to embrace the joy of creation and the endless possibilities of imagination. #feminism #emancipation #happy #smile #laughter

My work is deeply rooted and influenced by the rich tradition of Hanakotoba (花言葉), the Japanese language of flowers. Drawing inspiration from this centuries-old practice, I seek to imbue my abstract paintings with layers of meaning and emotion, creating a visual dialogue that resonates with viewers on a profound level. Informed by my background in mixed media and a keen understanding of color theory, I explore the symbolic significance of flowers as a means of communication. Each brushstroke, texture, and hue is carefully chosen to convey a specific sentiment or message, allowing the viewer to interpret the work in their own unique way. Through my art, I aim to create moments of connection and contemplation, inviting viewers to pause and reflect on the beauty and complexity of the natural world. Whether evoking feelings of love, gratitude, or resilience, my paintings serve as a mirror to the human experience, offering a glimpse into the universal language of the heart. In essence, my work is a celebration of the power of art to transcend language and culture, uniting us in our shared humanity. By engaging with the vocabulary of Hanakotoba, I hope to inspire others to see the world with fresh eyes and to find beauty and meaning in the most unexpected places.
