CAO ZHE HAO

Within my work I often look for inspiration from history and social events, making use of well-known figures from the world stage, past and present, to reflect upon contemporary society. I use painting, sculpture and installation to create and present scenes of absurdity, referencing political and social upheavals and ambitions acted out and thwarted throughout history. Divorced from the dictates of real space my canvases create their own dramas, setting up references and absurd juxtapositions, with forms that I have constructed, using direct reference and humour to reflect the conflicts and uncertainty of our times.
