Commissioned by Suzhou Centre, ‘Illuminations in the Key of Bloom’ is the largest painting completed by Ian Woo. Inspired by the seasonal bloom and cycle of nature, opposites co-exist in the painting – dark and light; structured and organic; warmth and cool; horizontal and vertical; translucent and solid. The intervening of these elements suggests the idea of metamorphosis within the passage of time, signifying growth and adaptation.
