Description

Chris Ofili: Paradise Lost by Chris Ofili explores notions of beauty, community, liberation, and constraint through a series of arresting black-and-white photographs taken on the island of Trinidad. This body of work is the artist's first published photography collection and engages with the diverse sources that inspired his critically acclaimed Paradise Lost exhibition. Through these simple yet striking images, Ofili captures the intersection of natural and man-made settings in Trinidad, highlighting the different aesthetic possibilities each brings out in the other. By focusing on a ubiquitous piece of equipment like chain-link fences, Ofili comments on our interactions with space and each other. The accompanying essays offer new interpretive possibilities for this groundbreaking artist's work.
