<Mountain Water>-Laozu's Garden (2017)
These standalone pieces represent a transformation of the Chinese idea of Scholar's Rocks, they are made of porcelain with traditional colorings of China Blue.
The idea of transformation comes with the creation process,different substances are mixed with porcelain and China Blue, and during firing, unexpected reactions happen in the kiln.
The outcomes are unique and random forms based on the chemical laws of nature.
This recalls the formation of Scholar's Rocks, which are naturally formed in nature through the ages,
and for my works, are formed in the kiln during the firing process.
In the beginning there was heaven and earth, people wandered around and looked up to the sky.
Then all is about merging and morphing, heaven and earth is an opposing and balancing pair,
from which our reality grows.
These works materialize the ultimate design of nature,
no matter how the horizon changes, duality still exists.
Physicality is paranoia.
