I am looking for a certain complicity with the viewer. What I want is that when they look at my work a smile escapes them. That they cannot resist, that a feeling of joy, of love, of memory, of warmth to the soul floods them.

문의In the exhibition titled "A Fun Adventure," Debbie presents a captivating narrative centered around a group of whimsical characters known as "little monsters" originating from a distant planet, now transformed into children. Through a fantastical lens, these characters embark on an exploration of Earth, navigating its landscapes with a curious eye that observes both the human world and its inhabitants, while another eye observes human beings objectively, adorned with a ribbon. Their escapades through vibrant urban cities and soaring through the sky evoke a sense of childhood wonder. With mischievous and innocent personalities, these endearing creatures delight in their newfound experiences and wonder on Earth for the first time and have fallen in love with humans and nature. They have the mission of reminding adults the value of life’s nuances and happiness. They always carry a sense of infectious humor and boundless optimism to encourage everyone to embrace joy and innocence of childhood. The exhibition's title is the artist’s definition of her own life journey, inspired by cherished memories of a joyful childhood. Debbie's work serves as an invitation to a world characterized by optimism and introspection. It encourages audiences to join her on a whimsical exploration of the imagination and the fun adventure.
