under author:
Last name: LEE-PISAPIA
first name: Kam Fu Bernadette
LEE-PISAPIA Kam Fu Bernadette or LEE Kam Fu Bernadette
( order of name used in Hong Kong and Italy
alias
Kam Fu Bernadette LEE-PISAPIA
(order of name used in Britain, Canada )
alias
Bernadette Kam Fu LEE ( maiden name)
LEE-PISAPIA, Kam Fu Bernadette
(order and form ( with a comma in between ) generally used in Hong Kong to distinguish
last name from first name)
Kam Fu Bernadette LEE-PISAPIA
(order generally used in Britain and Canada )
Bernadette is the writer as well as the publisher
the name chosen for the publisher ( not a registered company ) has two
formats:
LEE-PISAPIA, Kam Fu Bernadette ( Hong Kong format), or LEE-PISAPIA Kam Fu Bernadette ( Italian format) . Therefore, the comma in between does not mean two distinct individuals as it is used to distinguish the last name and the first name in the Hong Kong format. For the other format, capital letter has been used to indicate the LAST NAME from the first name.
( from 06/09/2023, the Italain format is officially transformed to LEE Kam Fu Bernadette coniugata PISAPIA . However, the fully extended writing of my hyphenated Last Name is still maintained as my Canadian and Hong Kong identity : Kam Fu Bernadette LEE-PISAPIA)

moments
fractions
of a scene
re-recorded
as paint
from sketches
made while rewatching
some favourites scenes
Ipad as a screen
to remind myself
of slide lectures seen
in Fine Arts Building of the U Of A
attending lectures of Renaissance figures
admist darkness
appreciating
sildes of
famous paintings quickly noted
years later
I lived passionately in and out
those moments of intense joy
found in the living museums of Florence
no longer slide shows
but original works shown
The passion for some old Hong Kong films
reignited also in a similar kind of way
due to the invention of IPad screen
and the unexpected stationed
of years
lived like a hermit
in the outskirt of Rome
To paint and not to paint
to draw or not to draw
to be a painter or not to be a painter
to see or not to see
to remember or choose not to remember
of a life
lived so full
given so much
Some answers
surprisingly
are seen in the chioce of a subject matter
or subject matters
such as the revisit of my childhood
through memory, photos
or moments lived by the others
in scenes of the old days
a Hong Kong never ever remade
but ever and forever
remade
as one's inner memory
A caress
A celebration
A big thank you
to the scenes of films
that accompanied my visual inner life
all these years
while alone
in the seemingly attractive other SCENE
of the City of Rome
I began a journey of painting YOU
on uncommon surface
such as that of an oriental kind of umbrella
as if to suggest
a rebirth of a soul
that was missing
but is refound
( works shown here were done in 2016 )
