Overview

Here light is thicker than air, thicker even than earth. Depth of field is illusive. In its place, the golden light of day and the blue light of shadow meet in harsh collisions, bathing, even submerging, everything in their respective zones. Light becomes texture, providing the artist with somewhere to indulge the crunchiness of his material. Now we might understand why these images are so compelling: the artist has chosen to paint tigers in a zoo at dusk. Stripes on tigers, bars on enclosures, tree branches overhead; these environments are tailor-made playgrounds for light and shadow. — Robin Peckham (Co-Director of Taipei Dangdai Art & Ideas)
