East represents a reinterpretation of the decorative motifs typical of the imperial carpets of the Ming Dynasty. Here, the classic themes of the Dragon and the Lotus Flower are expressed through the characteristic language of Jan Kath, where patterns are partially concealed with brushstrokes of silk. In doing so here, the artist pays homage to the art of Kintsugi, or to the Japanese technique of restoring ceramics using gold or platinum, emphasising the recomposition of the object.
