Jeff Kao
Bay Area artist Jeff Kao also explores architecture, yet in a very different manner. Kao doesn’t subscribe to the notion that a “man’s home is his castle.” With an obsessive interest in military iconography and imagery derived from war movies, Kao’s new work seems to suggest that a “man’s home is his bunker.” And perhaps his bunker is about to be over run by the enemy. With a deft combination of digital print and drawings, Kao visually presents his enemies as the burdens of home repairs, maintenance and domestic upkeep.
