| This image | comment | Out of the Box installation featuring ?Cocooning: The Third Eye Dolls? ?Upstairs in the loft some of the first work I encounter, tucked in the back, is an installation by Flo Oy Wong which, she explains, is a departure from her regular work. Very baroque in feel, a number of hand-crafted dolls are covered with beads and other materials bringing to mind briefly the work of Chris Ofili. The work ties together elements of the artist's spiritual practice and by cleverly placing bubble shaped mirrors along the back wall, she produces a conceptual element as one contemplates upon reflection and illusion. Dolls fly and hover, containing symbolic references-- one is a family member who has a black belt in a Chinese Martial Art form. Another is Michelle Obama. And Wong's contemplation of her mother as she arrives out from a suitcase is meaningful.? ? Kathryn Arnold for artbusiness.com New World Order: Humanity - Ian MacLean, Kelly Ording, Flo Oy
Wong, Robert Welsh Opening reception: This segment, Humanity, featured four artists who deal with the common human experience. Some of the artworks address this theme in a personal context, such as Flo Oy Wong's depictions of family relationships, whereas others address it in more social framework, such as Robert Welsh's pieces, which capture evidence of human habitation in an urban landscape. |
