Description
This experience is now distilled in The Eye of the Storm, his latest exhibition at Rossi & Rossi. As we walk into the first room, a blue flashing light blinds us momentarily. A heap of branches, dried leaves and flowers is stashed in one corner. There is a faint woody scent in the air. A sense of urgency, of danger—of us being exposed to the elements—begins to build. And then we come face to face with the devastation itself: a slew of paintings depicting wrecked shop shutters in Macau. Walk a few steps further in, and the devastation is replaced by gallery-goers, people in corporate officers and travellers in Hong Kong.
