Beyond Image and Dreams

Pearl Lam Galleries is pleased to present Beyond Image and Dreams, the first solo exhibition of works by Indonesian artist Gatot Pujiarto (b. 1970) in mainland China. Expanding upon his narrative of revealing overlooked realities in everyday life, Pujiarto’s new body of work further emphasizes imminent issues in contemporary life, especially environmental destruction. The title Beyond Image and Dreams conveys both a sense of hope and caution towards the future of mankind, expressing the universality of the artist’s concerns, as well as his unique approach of transforming trivial matters, weirdness, and abnormities into a new truth and reality that awaits discovering.
