Setting out from forms, my art and my study appropriate elements of plants and seashells that ever had captured our deep gaze and made our heart pound.
Through shaping their forms, my creation combines stones of different properties and characteristics, giving my sculpture its life and image. From certain angles, their imagery forms might come from the contrasts of their textures or hues. To me, stone sculpting is a slow process of transformation, which allows me to observe the miniscule and subtle scenery contained in forms.
