The Amusing Melancholy of Crooked Faces: Paintings by Jeffrey Chong Wang

0

I’m sure you have photos that show you as if you were in the middle of something, like you were talking or doing something, and then you were suddenly filmed. As a result, the face in the photo freezes halfway through, turning into the funny grimace of a hung-over degenerate.

In his work, artist Jeffrey Chong Wang often explicitly tries to replicate this effect. It turns out funny, a little sad, but nice – and coupled with the postmodernist themes paintings and get something of mystery.
