Exhibition Description:
This section of the online museum is devoted to paintings and sculptures on the themes of game competition, hierarchy of strong and weaker, subordination of powers, and anything else related to sports. In paintings
and objects depicting athletes, armaments, and modern weapons, Nicholaas Chiao sees the beauty of novel technologies' strength, power, action, and supremacy. He adores the raw complexity of form and color. He imagines alternative, peaceful use of military weapons
instead of deploying them in straightforward, threatening aggressions. Nicholaas Chiao, in his Art, supports the infinite possibilities of sporting game competitions, playful challenges, and lawful fights instead of murderous wars and unhuman conflicts. Influences: Damien Hirst, Andrei Molodkin. Own contribution: use of a hierarchy of geometric forms as an idea of subordination to the mechanically strongest, triangular form.
