Brighton Royal Pavilion Chinoiseriez Arco

Print description

In royal green and gold hues this print plays with the expression Regency architecture of Indo-Saracenic style and Chinoiserie interiors, classic calligraphic South Asian art and early 20c. Asian inspired decorative arts.

To name the print I have combined two words: the word ‘Chinoiserie’ that relates to the European decorative style that in XVIII and XIX c. uses historic Asian elements and my surname end ‘ez’ . The inspiration for the creation of my dragon looks towards the East again at South Asian dragons around 1244 from the Southern Song dynasty dragons by artist Chen Rong. He painted a paper roll called  ‘Nine Dragons’. It is a handscroll painting that depicts the apparitions of dragons soaring amidst clouds, mists, whirlpools, rocky mountains and fire, the painting refers to the dynamic forces of nature in Daoism. The depicted dragons are associated with nine sons of the Dragon King, while the number nine itself is considered auspicious in Chinese astrology and folk beliefs.
