Exhibition Website

Aug 18 2018 - Oct 28 2018

Shimo is an artist who defies categorization. His talent at bridging media, style of painting, and cultural modes of expression is visually apparent in his exhibition, Dual NatureHis current body of work pairs his elegant, porcelain vessels with gestural paintings of lotus flowers. With a broad brush and cobalt blue oxide, Shimo paints wide field of blue on his vessels. In his paintings, Shimo blends specific natural motifs seen in the three-dimensional pieces, with larger area of ink washes, punctuated by a few touches of white, pink or red. In all, Shimo’s current work in porcelain and on paper /canvas is part of his ever evolving practice that merges ancient traditions with a contemporary sprit.
