THE HOUSE OF FINE ART ZHUANG HONG YI’S EQUINOX // TYGA’S T10T NFT DROP

by Francesco Marchiaro

HOFA Gallery has established itself as a pioneer and innovative visionary in the art sphere. With more than 10 years of experience, HOFA is once again showcasing its leadership in the art space, bringing to London the latest solo exhibition by internationally acclaimed artist Zhuang Hong Yi alongside an incoming drop of exclusive NFT artworks in collaboration with famed rapper Tyga.

ZHUANG HONG YI’S EQUINOX

Contemporary painter and master Zhuang Hong Yi returns to HOFA Gallery this May with an exclusive London solo show, 'Equinox'.

The exhibition falls within the two-week period of the blossoming of Spring in the artist's home country of China as well as in the Netherlands where Zhuang Hong Yi has lived and worked for many years. This simultaneous changing of the seasons in these two parts of the world also represents the blossoming of the motif that is so central to Zhuang Hong Yi's artistic practice, the flower. In particular, flowering of the Sakura Cherry tree in China and Tulips in the Netherlands, which not only hold an important cultural significance to each nation, but also a deeply personal and symbolic one for Zhuang Hong Yi who merges his Eastern and Western influences in his mesmerising works of art.

Through the portrayal of this iconic motif, Zhuang Hong Yi's landscapes and flowerbeds convey a strong sense of enrichment, positivity, and balance. Nature takes centre stage in these works as the artist takes inspiration from its rhythms and cycles, particularly the Vernal Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere which marks the coming of Spring.

In his work, the artist enacts personal and cultural struggles visually, vacillating between phases of controlled planning, emotional gesture and careful editing, creating works that represent beauty, sophistication and perfection. Delivering one of a kind colour changing artworks.

Zhuang Hong Yi has exhibited throughout Europe and China and his work is held in numerous esteemed public and private collections worldwide and has been the subject of multiple museum exhibitions at Groninger Museum.

TYGA’S T10T NFT DROP

Grammy-nominated rapper, Tyga, will be launching the resulting work of his partnership with KREATION – the pioneering NFT marketplace and offshoot of leading international art gallery, HOFA.

This latest collaboration for the new NFT marketplace follows the sell-out success of KREATION’s exclusive launches, most recently in partnership with French artist Leo Caillard.
