Event Details
Sumptuously painted in a technique consisting of meandering patterns held in check by subtly glaze and exacting trompe l'oeil floras and shells, Kong Ho’s floral-nautilus paintings exemplify the style of his "Luminosity Series." The beauty of a short-lived flower evokes a melancholic sense of the transience of life and leaves a memory trace that speaks about the inevitable processes of change. Ho’s art embodies the transition, a sense of the bitter-sweet—a feeling of the loss for a past that is left behind, and the excitement of reconnection in the future.
