All in Painting
You mention a deep connection with imagining unseen worlds. How do you translate these imaginative visions into tangible artworks?
I believe that by listening to music from different movies and soundtracks, I transport myself to another world, a place to escape from my reality, where all my characters and stories connect. Likewise, I seek ways to translate that imagination or stories into a tangible work.
Phyllis van CHUA's products are full of colorful and vibrant floral patterns and designs. Phyllis van CHUA's core concept and features are mostly based on greenery and flowers, which stem from the fact that since I was a child, I have been living with flowers and plants, and I feel that the world of flowers, plants and plants is full of joy, carefree, comfortable and at ease, and that I am passionate about collecting treasures of the natural world. I remember my father's orchid garden is a good medicine for my spiritual enrichment, and the flying winged insects in the garden are regarded as an image of "freedom", which is the goal that I want to pursue most, so I incorporate the concept into my works.

I began my career 5 years ago as an abstract artist while working as an accountant. It was the hobby for me at first and I was learning different painting languages by copying paintings from famous artists like Van Gogh or Claude Monet. It was a relaxing time for me. Then later I developed my own abstract taste and started looking at the art deeper than just a visual object. Some artworks were like a door that invites to the different worlds, a portal to the different layer of reality that coexists with the current one. And later on, I started exploring new worlds and expressing messages from it in a new form of art which allows me to be my most vulnerable and open self in a form of a sacred energy art.

Undoubtedly living in such a magical city full of artistic heritage awakens the aesthetic sense of any sensitive person. It is a magical city for its light, its magic, its heritage and uniqueness. On the other hand, two cultural traditions coexist, the Christian and the Muslim Andalusian. One is abstract and the other has a figurative tradition that begins in the Renaissance, when the city keeps great artistic treasures that surround it with a mystical and unreal beauty. My work has also evolved from figuration to abstraction, although my abstraction is not geometric but organic, it does carry the concept of module, repetition and texture in several of my assemblages, this concept of module is noticeable in others, the organic predominates.
I guess I was always interested on how society expresses the thoughts and ideas of their era in the way it shapes the urban environment, in architecture and landscaping. At times houses in my paintings are sort of a metaphor for the unique identity of each of us, maybe different in colour of detail but always recognizable as a house, as a place to live with unique colours. At times my paintings reflect on history. For instance in recent paintings with the theme of the terraced houses of dutch cities. But mostly I paint projecting my own ideas.

They are a testament to the power of art to connect us to the deepest parts of ourselves and to each other, bridging the great divides we perceive in our lives and our spirits.
