Ceramist Bary Cha Cha offers his latest lotus creations as a scenario – an alternative other-worldly setting formulated as an antidote to the urbanscape we live in. His smoky leaves, buds and blooms emerge from the extraterrestrial dreamscape he has devised with neo-volcanic intensity, yet soothing with the calm of pure form. Bary presents a portal to a vision of space-realism, a new earth where “there should be no segregation between art and the art of the living space”. The photo-paintings are a collaborative effort between Bary and vetran photographer Lee Jen. They embrace the periphery and complement the central garden setting to afford hyperrealistic interpretations of lotus bathed in alluring, yet ambiguous light and shadow. Are the flowers submerged in wisps of cloud or mist, ripples of water or an ether as yet undiscovered?
