Catalogue of solo exhibition by Charlie Co at Osage Kwun Tong in 2007. 'Charlie Co's work embraces the vitality and transformative power of Surrealism, together with its liberation of representation from naturalism, and its focus on the world of the imagination. In his work Co examines global issues from a local perspective. His works presage a dystopian future at the hands of the military industrial complex, and addresss environmental degradation, the alienation of modern life, the rapacity of the global economy and its institutions, the exploitation of women and hypocrisy in religion.' - extracted from the introduction. With essays by Jonathan Thomson, Patrick D. Flores and artist biography.
