Drawing her inspiration from ancient sculptures, such as funerary carvings from the Tang Dynasty, or the medieval friezes at Chartres, Anne Chu's version of history is something more akin to fairytale. Primitively carved from wood, Chu's invented relics capture a rich, timeless aesthetic, which makes their authenticity all the more believable. Tombstone For a King is a rough-hewn tableau depicting a 'long forgotten' tragedy. Her clunky figures are careful study of craftsmanship, displaying a casual presence rarely found in ancient depictions, her washy pigmentation is convincing as battered remains. But it's her dreamy colours, greys, pinks, and yellows, which give rise to girly romance: her 'ancient dynasties' always seem strangely contemporary, bringing mystery and romance to life.
