Curator's pick: What kinds of lines have you drawn?
By Bo ryung, Rhee

We keep drawing new lines. We draw lines between people. We follow the lines on the streets. We continue to draw the lines in the air or on paper until we meet our destination. Lines which could portray you or me and mountains or sea. Shaky lines; broken and reconnected lines; overlapping and erased lines; or strong as faith yet uncertain lines; corrected and redone lines. The lines artists draw reveal their worries and the meanings behind the lines in a solid form. Line itself is a track of life. What kinds of lines have they been drawing today living under the same sky? And what kinds of lines have you drawn today? I hope your life and the lines you have drawn will merge like a piece of painting...

ORLAINBERLIN

I am an Irish artist dividing my time between Cornamona, Co. Galway, Ireland and Berlin, Germany.

Having completed a degree in History of Art at Trinity College Dublin in 1999, I embarked on my Grand Tour, working and traveling around the world for 14 years before moving to Germany to focus on my art full-time.

‘Pale blue clouds, pink stained skies and the soft line where the air meets the land and sea…’
My paintings are inspired by my native west of Ireland and the many other lands traveled since. W.B. Yeats, Patrick Kavanagh, Paul Henry, Sean Scully and Georgia O'Keefe are some of the poets and artists I am influenced by and draw inspiration from.

In October this year I will be moving to a larger studio where I can continue to pay tribute to the natural world, paint inspiring and uplifting work that seeks to find a vision of harmony between the freedom and uncertainty of our human consciousness.

3 of my works hang in the HSE Corporate Finance Center, Irish Government Buildings, Dublin, Ireland.

Visits to my studio are welcome. Please email or call for an appointment.
