Nov 6 - Dec 13, 2020
ESLITE GALLEY is pleased to present “LIN Yen Wei” from November 14 to December 13,
2020, featuring new works made in 2020 by the artist. Lin Yen Wei is best known for his
recreations of objects found in public places that are painted by amateur painters through
an integration of photography and painting. “Just Like You the Way You Are” and
“Plaything Study,” two series shown in this exhibition, are Lin’s portrayals of cement animal
sculptures and plastic toy animals, which he captured by the camera, then depicted on the

artistic language to engender a discourse on multiple levels.
