The Story Behind the Art
What inspired you to create this piece?
“The inspiration for this work came from my personal life experience. I want to open a conversation for the future about caring – without labelling it. The idea of using the elements of Chinese traditional crafts while creating a sculptural canvas that attempts to bring the East and West together.”
What are the differences between “Infinite & Inconceivable Lust” from the other art pieces you’ve created?
“Since prehistoric times humans have been creating art in various forms and mediums. Nowadays most of people think art is only a canvas or sculpture, but as I’ve always said, there is only art and it comes in many forms. Over the years things shift; technology and tools have evolved. So I try to express myself on a new canvas or new sculptural forms. I want to use different mediums – painting, sculpture, lighting and architecture – through which I can tell a story. The difference in this piece from previous works is how I’ve created a new canvas while using several mediums alongside a distinct configuration of sculptural ceramics. The intention is to create something visually sharp that brings nostalgia and can appeal to our senses with a story. I think this is a new format for the audience – it was specifically created for this statement. All the pieces I develop are in distinct formats and materials. I can create in silk or ceramic but the intention is that I try to bring Chinese elements into the contemporary scene.”
