Chris Oh‘s recent exhibition is a profound tribute to the Northern Renaissance, where he skillfully merges the essence of this pivotal era in art history with the organic beauty of natural materials. His work is a dialogue between past and present, encapsulating the intricate details and emotive power of the Old Masters while presenting them on unconventional canvases such as shells and antique wood.
This fusion not only honors the artistic achievements of the Northern Renaissance but also invites reflection on the relationship between art, nature, and time. Oh’s paintings are a testament to the enduring influence of historical art movements and their capacity to inspire contemporary creativity and interpretation. His works are mainly inspired by Pieter Bruegel, Hieronymus Bosch, and other great masters.
