Synopsis "Night Visions"

"Chris Coles paintings and artwork is very striking I guess I would say. They remind me of Zappa lyrics...'gross and perverted, obsessed and deranged'. His colors are so primitive and their throbbing clash on your eyes and senses ooze a sense of darkness, of evil even. Yet, they are almost playful at times and amusing as well. His work reminds me of what I expect to see when I am fairly obliterated and moving aside the thick velvet curtain of the umpteenth 'next' gogo bar, the one I know I should not go in, but enter I do. You know, the bar with the katoey mamasan with the garish make-up that glows under the black lights that scares the bejesus out of you as his/her face looms in your drunken blurry field of vision. Coles captures the extra-dimensional feel of the Thailand nightlife. His work occupies another zone of existence. It's so ugly at times it is intriguing in a perverse way that makes one want to embrace it. If you know what I mean? Maybe not...." -- Anonymous internet comment on Chris Coles' Paintings from the Bangkok Night.
