This exhibition brings together two contrasting artists with surprisingly coherent results. Beijing artist
Wu Xiaohai uses charcoal and paper, and
Eric Corne paint, to create eerie, other-worldly scenes full of nostalgia and nightmares. Strange figures blend with their backgrounds and loom from shadowy corners, dance with children and float feet over the floor. The surreal scenes evoke something subconcious and childlike, a shared history, and the intense level of information in every piece gets you extremely involved.
