Waiting for the Moon Sculpture - Limited Edition of 99

Sculpture is a profession in a narrow sense, and it's more about shaping life in a broader sense. Works reflect character. We shape them, and they also subtly shape us. What matters is the spiritual core they convey to people. "Purist", in Eastern aesthetics, represents a serene and elegant aesthetic concept. It embodies spiritual nobility and a healthy attitude towards life aesthetics. In the language of sculpture itself, it involves the pursuit of balance. The "Purist" series currently has concrete expressions of three traditional themes: deer, dragon, and literati. I think the concreteness in sculpture is to manifest one's own character and is a realistic portrayal of one's state of mind. The composition of deer and bamboo not only represents the delicate and beautiful appearance of Eastern imagery, but I also attach great importance to their being endowed with the symbol of an upright personality. The composition of deer and fire shows the integration of movement and stillness, cold and warmth, demonstrating the aesthetic concepts of a balanced state of mind and a prosperous and harmonious life. Many of my works are colored with cyan. Cyan is like water, with a cool and calm aura. The combination of cyan and white gives people an elegant and refined scholarly air. Most of my recent works incorporate the satisfying image of the traditional Taiji diagram. For example, in the work "Purist · Seeking Seclusion", the plump back is slightly curved, and the head turns towards the thing it is seeking. Its posture of exploring seclusion in the forest recreates the charm of the verse "By chance, I found a secluded and leisurely place, and then forgot the worldly cares. Only then did I realize that a true hermit doesn't necessarily have to be in the forest." "Steadfast Seeker", in Eastern aesthetics, is a gentle and profound aesthetic power. My father's generation spent their whole lives farming. They were steadfast, focused, simple, and down-to-earth. In my opinion, this is the most important spirit of working hard like an ox in aesthetics. The "Steadfast Seeker" series makes a contrast and reflection on the current fast-paced life. Should we slow down and deeply cultivate the aesthetics of life? Most of my works adopt symmetrical and slightly dynamic compositional forms. Although they may seem to lack a bit of liveliness, I hope they have an eternal charm. My creative method is rather rational and experimental. Sculpture is a task that requires perseverance.
