 NEW YORK CITY based artist, SeaHawk Wang-Radojcic 

Whom am I...? Why am I here...? Where am I going...?
 

PROFILE.
       My artistic' name is SeaHawk Wang-Radojcic (SeaHawk in Chinese means HaiYing) and I was born in Harbin as HaiYing Wang. Harbin is  a capital city of Hei Longjiang province, which is geographically located at highest point in Northeastern China and near to Russian Siberian border.
         As a five to six year old girl growing up during full swing of Mao's Cultural Revolution, not being able understanding what is going on, when every day seeing and hearing masses of people walked and screamed on the street, was very scary. I couldn't accept it and I created my own "reality". I retreat to another world. To my room where I started drawing the things around me... I developed an exceptional drawing ability and latter on, at age, I guess, of eight or maybe nine, one cold winter evening my sister gave me used water colors and she showed me how to paint with them...
         Next year in the end of Summer, my mother told me that after regular school I will go every evening for a few hours to another school. That school was only few streets from our apartment. The "new school", was a smaller than my really shool and an old house. Inside a strange odor was in the air. In dark small long hallway, from ceiling to the floor, different size of painting hanged tight together. One of the five doors was entrance to my classroom...
         After graduation 1991, I was offered a job as art editor for Hei Longjiang Daily newspaper, in Harbin but by declining that position I devoted myself full time to oil paintings. I did explored art by studying Old European Master. I did grasped essence of they artistic' soul and that helped me to develop my unique brush technique. My glimmer tone would grow into glint of balanced colors with full spectrum of explosive and energizing movements.
         1997 and 1999 I had a spectacular solo exhibition at Chinese National Museum of Art in Beijing. Over 60 different newspaper and magazines wrote about these two exhibition and Reuters News Agency has TV interviews with me too. (see PRESS 1983-2009)
         Hong Kong weekly magazine "MING" proclaimed me and nine other artists as Chinese 10 best artists and Chinese National Art Treasure for 1997. 
         Some of my finest paintings has been publicized in Chinese and foreign newspaper and magazine. Many early of my art works was collected by Americans, European, Japans and Chinese private collectors.

From October 2008 I become resident of New York City where I live, paint and teaching.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT

To inspire all artists, THE CREATOR,  has provided endless motives as: horizons, oceans' waves, colorful flowers, meadows, animals, insects, love songs from blooming tree, deadly dance by mountain's goats, body's pain expressed on faces, soul's agony and fear hidden in deepness of the eyes, happiness from mothers hug, peacefulness of small village, fast life in modern big cities...

When my inner emotions interact with the reality of everyday' life in New York City they brings hidden energy from buildings, bridges, trees, parked cars, sport arenas, music from underground of subway and people on the streets which I convey to my canvas.

My paintings will continue to capture each moment in time of Beautiful City Wonderful Life which is my City of New York.
