From the perfectly imperfect celadon vase to its riotous spill of flowers, from the rich silk drapery to its stunning reflection on the tiled tabletop, Eric Wert’s Deluge presents a veritable flood of hyperreal detail. One can almost feel the ceramic fragments’ jagged edges, the raised threads of the embroidered silk, the velvety texture of gladiolus petals. The floral fragrance, too, is almost tangible.
