The visual field is a frame for seeing, and according to the painting theory of
Alberti, painting is paralleled with windows. Drawing on the analogy of painting
as a window, Chu uses his work as a conduit to open a gateway between the
material and spiritual realms, an excellent way to explore "seeing". And by
layering vivid and realistic imagery sourced from photography, he creates
scenes that are reminiscent of traditional Japanese water-based woodblock
prints; using framing and composition, Chu invites the viewer to reconsider and
delve deeper into the very nature of visual perception and explore the myriad of
other worlds that emerge from this framework.
