Well go out on a limb here, and say that, Brendan Lee Satish Tang‘s beautifully detailed, if not completely barmy, ceramic artworks are truly one of a kind…. Surely the concept of traditional Chinese Ming dynasty vessels being mutated by the forms of robotic Manga style prosthetics, simply has to be an original one. The British-Canadian artist presents his ‘Manga Ormolu’ series as a “dialogue on contemporary culture, technology, and globaliation through a fabricated relationship between ceramic tradition and techno-Pop Art”…. and we rather like the occasional ridiculousness of his artworks as they so very well visualise our unnerving tendencies to assimilate cultural identities. Exhibiting across Canada this year, Tang is a challenging and unique artist whose reputation we’re sure will grow…..
