Silver Dream Machine
On view at Finale Gallery from November 25 to 27, 2010 as part of the fund raising auction for Chabet 50 exhibitions in 2011.
“Silver Dream Machine” comes from a reference to Abelardo Morrel’s photographs of rooms transformed in camera obscura and projects what is outside from its interiors. Ching’s painting alters this photographic allusion with the image of Jones Bridge and an aluminum cast toy train, consequently juxtaposing Morrel’s Havana room with the image of an inverted Jone’s Bridge. These elements come together to direct our thoughts on the Philippines’ and Cuba’s shared history of Spanish colonization and contrasts the dark tones with the artist’s homage to hope.

Road to Santiago
Artists Jonathan Ching and Anna Varona go on a visual journey together in Road to Santiago. The exhibit is on view at West Gallery beginning August 17 through September 11.
Notes Varona, “We arrived at the concept of the show spontaneously. We were talking about visuals that interested us, and we found a common thread: buses, trucks, shoes, legs, things that have been abandoned or forgotten…” The decision to collaborate on a show came easily: “It was a good idea because we both were at a crossroads in our lives: Jonathan with his career as an artist, and I being torn between being a representative of women’s advocates in the province.”
Ching, who brought up the idea to join artistic forces in Road to Santiago, thinks his and Anna’s works will jive as they go through personal journeys as artists and individuals.
