About East and West Escultura Ceràmica

Est i Oest és una sèrie d'artesania ceràmica amb forma de formigues. Cada escultura de formiga mesura 160 mil·límetres de llargada, 120 mil·límetres de fondària i 300 mil·límetres d'alçada. La forma s'obté mitjançant motlle d'escultura i es cou a una temperatura alta de 1300 graus. El paper blau i blanc reciclat, recollit dels tallers de Jingdezhen, es combina amb un galvanoplàstia moderna, unint la decoració oriental amb l'estil occidental. Com que el paper reciclat varia en cada peça, cada formiga és única. La sèrie expressa la idea del reciclatge i la protecció del medi ambient.
