So Many Ways to See the World

Original mixed-media painting on wood with layers of washes and texture. 

14" x 11" wooden substrate with black painted sides.  

Testimonial: “'So Many Ways to See the World' has a kind of entangling stratigraphy that captures me whenever I walk past. It has earthy horizontal layers increasingly crosscut by vibrant filaments both pushing through and binding these strata together. There is a sense of acceptance and resistance, like cooling magma pushing through fractured bedrock. Most art seems like a finished thing to me, a state- ment or a reflection of something I am supposed to understand. Chin’s painting feels like an ongoing process, something actively yet slowly solidifying with a geological persistence that is both forceful and natural. And I can’t look away."  Darcy, Canada.
