7th - 24th November
Gallery One: Brian Cheung - Where are we now?
Opening Nov 7th from 6pm.
Where Are We Now? is a response and commentary on the relationship between man and nature in an age of fear and uncertainty, as interpreted through a personal lens.
This new body of work represents a consolidation of past experiences as a means of understanding my own motivations, anxieties, and impulses as an artist. In a time when the concept of unspoiled nature is becoming an increasingly precious commodity, Where Are We Now? asks the open-ended question of where we are going, and at what cost.

In quiet moments, I think about history. If I keep thinking, it starts to feel alive and I forget my time. Sometimes I can almost smell the old world, when it is rank and heavy, but also when it is soft and beautiful. Push my brain harder, fall deeper, I see into the future too. Out of my place, and beyond my day.
The End, And I Saw Its Beginning Too is a series of twelve small oil painted works on canvas, embedded with a surface of copper leaf.
