植物锻造 (Plant Forge)

Curator

Jonathan Thomson

"“Plant Forge” bears some resemblance to the fronds of a pine tree but no pine like this ever took root on earth. Gao’s fronds in various shades of green grow from a trunk with the colour and texture of raw meat and are packed together like snippets of knitting wool. Amorphous forms - some spherical others more random float through the scene catching and reflecting a blue light whose source we cannot see, while at the centre of the composition in the far distance a sun glows bright orange in a deep purple sky.
