‘Denis Murrell @ Signum 2013’

by
285 Signum Living Store is proud to host the latest exhibition by the award-winning Macau-based painter Denis Murrell. 
 
‘Denis Murrell @ Signum 2013’ will run from July 3rd to September 30th 2013, and features 14 of Denis’ vibrant creations, most of which were painted this year.  
 
All media are cordially invited to attend the launch party for this exhibition on July 3rd, 2013, at 6:30pm at 285 Signum Living Store. 
 
Denis Murrell’s paintings evoke a sense of life and joy with their rich, vital hues, immersing visitors in world of lively, abstract expression. 
 
“I have paintings in many places around Macau but this is the first time for me to have an exhibition in a shop with people passing by, so I think it will be very good,” notes Mr. Murrell.
 
Denis creates his paintings using the unique technique of acrylic on tissue paper over canvas, resulting in a very particular textural appearance.
 
“It is actually a very simple technique that I discovered by accident over 20 years ago.  My aim is to create pleasing and interesting paintings with colour, shape, line and texture”.
 
Born in Melbourne, Australia in 1947, Denis was a teacher of English in Papua New Guinea and in Australia before moving to Macau in 1989, and has long regarded himself as a Macau artist.  He has been active in art circles in the city since his arrival, participating in many local exhibitions over the years and winning a number of awards including first prize for Western painting in the second Macau Biennale in 1995.  His paintings are to be found in many private and public collections in Macau and overseas.
 
Hosting the exhibition is 285 Signum Living Store, a strong supporter of local artists, as well as a truly unique home decoration and furniture store in the historic centre of Macau. With its wide range of creative and quirky accessories and trendy home décor series, and its proximity to many of Macau’s UNESCO World Heritage listed tourist sites, 285 Signum Living Store is an ideal location for displaying local artistic talents.
 
“We are very pleased to be hosting the beautiful paintings of Denis Murrell in our store.  We have always been committed to supporting local artists and we strongly believe that 285 Signum Living Store is an excellent platform for presenting local art to visitors and residents alike,” says Clement Cheng, Owner of 285 Signum Living Store.
