A conversation between an outsider and the past | Vessel of desires | Trevor Foster

'Vessel of desires' a very first solo exhibition of Trevor Foster at SAC gallery. As a visitor to foreign countries, he is often drawn to the crafts that not only reflect traditions, but also the values and history of the local cultures too. By applying those objects with unusual patterns or vice versa, such as Bencharong pattern on a skull, or Portuguese azulejos tiles on an obelisk made of reclaimed teak wood from Chiang Mai, he finds them to be ‘striking’ and draws attention to what would otherwise be the crafts that are easily ignored and dying from the people’s minds.
