We asked our team to share their favourite pieces on Partial at the moment, and this is what they chose. Plus, artworks that are no longer available!
STAFF PICK #1
“Grace Notes: It is the perfect title for this pensive, sentimental piece. Depending on my mood, I can see a figure within it, or a cityscape, an architectural detail, or simply fragmented shapes like summer light through a bedroom window – a soothing balm to the tension I’ve been feeling in the world around me lately.”
– Tammy Yiu Coyne, Co-founder & Co-Curator
STAFF PICK #2
“School recess, doodling during science class, airmail from a faraway land my parents call home: these are some of the things that immediately come to mind when I see Julia Mathew’s Malayalam. I thought her work instantly captured the uneasiness of “fitting in” as immigrant children as life pushes them along the path.”
– Chris Kim, Co-founder & CTO
STAFF PICK #3
“I enjoy how Raquel Da Silva’s Profundum piece adds a playfulness to the act of drowning; a cartoonish take on overwhelm, that I could only imagine Looney Tunes sound effects pairing with.”
– Travis Hines, CPO
STAFF PICK #4
“This piece takes me back to a time that seems so lost in the current world we live in now. I have a feeling of nostalgia and hope when I see this piece by Liang Wang. Nostalgia because the point-of-view captures a moment and way of life I’ve lived in, and hope because I know we’ll go back to eating brunch as usual!”
– Cat Khansryri, Artist Relations & Co-Curator
STAFF PICK #5
“I love this piece. It’s so playful and fun, with a cool vintage vibe. You can’t help but smile every time you look at it and really who doesn’t want that from something you will look at every day!”
– Maggie Fairs, Head of Partnerships
