FAFI - Tonya

"TONYA" 55X40X4cm

As part of her studio practice, Fafi works presently on a new body of work called « The Cutouts », these pieces depicting her famous « Fafinettes » characters are numbered, diligently registered and gladly using the « Fafi Color Library », a chromatic device catalyzing pigments and paint from her travels around the world.

作为她工作室练习的一部分，Fafi 目前正在创作一组新作品，名为《The Cutouts》，这些作品展现她著名的« Fafinettes »角色，均有编号，经过认真登记，并高兴地使用« Fafi Color Library »，这是一个色彩装置，能够催化她世界各地旅程中的颜料和涂料。

Challenging her regular "Tracés" made in less than 10’ on forgotten urban devices, the “Cutouts”have been created to be consumed and appreciated like candy. These created pictures are by turns self-reflective and playful, projecting a certain innocence and femininity where Fafi excels.

挑战她通常在忘却的城市设备上用不到10分钟完成的“Tracés”，这组“Cutouts”被创作成像糖果一样被欣赏与消费。这些创作的画面轮流自省而顽皮，呈现出某种天真与女性气质，是 Fafi 所擅长的。

The key medium XPS matter found and used for this series recalls souvenirs of the street walls in structure and touch and yet were discovered after playing around with surfboards. In fact, the combining matter added to the infinite possibilities of warm-cut free shaping is totally giving life to her characters in a new established way, acting like the Fafinettes have been stolen from a wall, wandered around and installed into another location.

本系列使用的核心介质——XPS 材料，在结构与触感上让人想起街墙的纪念物，但其实是在玩弄冲浪板后才发现的。事实上，混合材料为温感“自由裁切”带来了无限可能，这完全给她的角色注入了新的生命，使之像从墙上被偷走、四处徘徊后又安置在另一个地点的 Fafinettes。

Fafi marshals lines and shapes into a configuration that extends the use of traditional canvas, bringing her street practice at home or in museums. Abstracting from geographic and social relationships between people and places. The densely worked, layered compositions establish networks of shapes and color that link painterly forms with objects of desire.

Fafi 将线条与形状编排成一种配置，扩展了传统画布的使用，将她的街头实践带回家中或博物馆。抽象化地呈现人和地点之间的地理与社会关系。密集的工作与复杂层叠的构图建立了形状与色彩的网络，将绘画形式与欲望对象连接起来。
