Breathless in Shanghai
Title: "Breathless in Shanghai"
by Jay Koka, © 2016
60”w x 44”, acrylic on canvas, Private Collection
A photo of a billboard in Shanghai about six or seven years ago presented the idea for this painting. There was something really captivating about the model. She is obviously quite beautiful but sort of in your face with attitude at the same time. The main word is, loosly translated, “Wow”. Actually it means “Ye” in Mandarin which would be the exclamation made by someone in Shangahi under the circumstances. The small text at the bottom? I think most people can figure out what that says.
