Paradise leans towards the idea of the exoctic, something not yet seen or experienced. Philipp Pieroth depicts that in his plant life art pieces.

The history & culture tell us that Paradise was built on hard work under the torturous & unrelenting sun.

The term, Paradise, always pops up in connection with the Caribbean. That is how these islands are perceived from a western perceptive as a travel destination.

'Plant V,2018,Mixed media on paper,A3' by Philipp Pieroth is an observation of the plant life encountered on his expedition through Barbados. Wildlife is often an aspect that can depict Paradise.

Pieroth believes that the west consumes places without fully understanding the history of the destination. People miss out on the vibrancy & history that the "Paradise" destinations have to offer.

Pieroth looks at the ways in which different people have travelled to Paradise & how those circumstances have defined their own truth about the place.He hopes to create tension and disruption with his contextual discrepancy.

Pieroth confronts this idea that traveling comes with a responsibility & humbleness. He explores the way history & culture should be expierenced in its entirety not just as a vacation.

Philipp Pieroth describes the ideal of the works,"native rhythms of the island give the illusion of a paradise while tourists are in denial about how the locals settled in Paradise"

Philipp Pieroth depicts the illusion of the paradise ideal. On the surface the island life is blissful but he invites you to take a closer look.

Nothing demonstrates an exploration of emotions or thoughts better than comparing them together in one art piece. Pamela Chapman's 'Laughing Man II,Oil on Canvas,40 x 30cm' does just that.
