Patrick Otis Cox At the Forbidden City, Beijing, China
男人 女人 孩子 Man, Woman & Child These are expressionist works of
ancestral Chinese characters dating back 5,000 years to the early history of
China. “I want to capture the essence of China through the history and the
reason China is so cool”, Patrick Otis Cox. The forms are expressionist paintings
of the ancient and original Chinese writing characters. The drawing technique
includes ancient folklore and superstition. The style of painting is Neo
Expressionism. The spirited use of color reflects the metaphysical energy
surrounding the figures. The diamond shape connecting the father and mother
demonstrates a permanent union where the smaller connection with the child
shows a future separation. |
