Hashimoto Contemporary<\/a> is pleased to present Same Time, Same Place<\/em>, a solo exhibition by Los Angeles-based artist Adrian Kay Wong<\/a>. Returning for his second solo exhibition with the gallery, Wong invites the viewer into the still moments of his paintings. Reintroducing the human form to the recent works, Wong\u2019s paintings move through veiled narratives, rewarding patience and slowness in their consideration.\u00a0<\/p>\n Within Wong\u2019s canvases, everyday, overlooked moments become deeply considered, taking on momentous, cinematic qualities. Hints of stories and characters unfold within the exhibition. Shared settings and recurring objects follow the viewer from frame to frame, drawing connections between one another. <\/p>\n Wong expands on the exhibition title – Same Time, Same Place<\/em>, \u201cIt evokes feelings and imagery similar to seeing an old friend; that, even as years pass and worlds change, some things do stay the same \u2013 or, that the familiar has value in and of itself. It is often an expression said nonchalantly, offhand and almost cliche. While it usually is said as part of a farewell, it comes with the knowledge that we will return inevitably once again. It comes with a sense of comfort in the way that the sameness of each day can be comforting if we give it the chance. That we bring \u2018old\u2019 feelings and perceptions in a \u2018new\u2019 time.\u201c\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
