"In particular, that hue reminiscent of blood and red wine, hints at danger. I wanted to give an apparently peaceful picture an undercurrent of danger to create a sense of psychological conflict which hints at my internal feelings." - Cami Hui
Interviewer: Red is a colour that often appears in the background or in the objects in your work. Any special symbolic meaning in that? Could it be replaced by any other colour?
Cami: There was period when many different imageries associated with the colour red appeared in my mind. In particular, that hue reminiscent of blood and red wine, hints at danger. I wanted to give an apparently peaceful picture an undercurrent of danger to create a sense of psychological conflict which hints at my internal feelings.
