Flora & Fauna: Paintings by Jon Ching

Hawaiian artist Jon Ching creates beautifully complex compositions that blend wildlife with flowers, plants and other natural elements.

“Their diversity of skills, infinite combination of colours, patterns and details and the perfection of their evolution fascinates Jon and draws him to study their nature. In his work, along with birds, Jon invites other creatures and habitats into his compositions. Deeply intrigued by symbiosis, both as a natural phenomenon and as a metaphor, Jon looks at the balance and relationship of organisms in the human world and depicts scenes of reflection. In his meticulously detailed rendering, his compositions are abundant and full of metaphor and subtle irony.”
