Story

STAINLESS STEEL | 2016 | 3 blocks. H430 - H530 cm - 920 kg


The artwork has been inspired by the natural seeds which are deep-rooted in the soil, the water, the source of life and gradually grow up to have new lives on the surface of the earth. This seed-structured work, explores the flow of energy from multi-branches of roots to the core of seeds, transforming them into sprouts as their new lives.

The complex of “Seeds” also expresses the sculptor’s sympathy to the nature and his perception of life and vitality which has been experienced in his own progress of art work creation. It can also be a bridge between the past, the present and the future. The sculptor takes attitudes toward the harmony between the nature and the human beings in the natural order.
