Chris Ofili





When I checked this person after the exhibition, I found that Chris Ofili exhibition London was home for Chris Ofili for many years having been one of the famous Young British Artists backed by Saatchi back in the nineties. A contemporary of Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin, Chris Ofili featured in the sensational Sensation exhibition and has been a major contender on the contemporary art scene ever since.



Mixed mediaOver 45 paintings are included in the Chris Ofili exhibition at Tate Britain, along with a selection of drawings and watercolours. All created in his instantly recognisable style, the works are colourful and expressive, and many feature his trademark use of elephant dung. Alongside the excretia, gillter, resign, map pins and excerpts from glossy magazine are also used to add layers to the canvases.


When I saw his work in Tate Britain , I found it's so hard to understand , I don't know what he wanna express to others actrually. But it's a really visual feast to me. Maybe I could study the color he use and put it in my print work then.
