ROMANCE


Art-o-rama, Marseille
Naomi Hawksley, Ingrid Yi-Chen Lu, Emilia Wang
Joint fair presentation with Iowa, Brooklyn
Aug 29–31, 2025


This presentation brings together works by Naomi Hawksley, Ingrid Yi-Chen Lu, and Emilia Wang, in which the artists surface their inner worlds through craft and the handmade. Across the paintings anddrawings on view, structures of containment and suspension appear alongside motifs of accumulation and erasure. Together they pose the question: what arewe expected to hold—emotionally, so-cially, and metaphysically? Through a sustained engagement with tactile and abstract form, these artiststrace the material dynamics that shapeour sense of place and home, tied todiasporic movement and intimationsof transcendence within the everyday. These gestures carry moral and mystical weight through reflections intimacy and estrangement.
