“This ceramic sculpture is from my series of couple-family theme. The gentle movement from 2D to 3D expresses the dance of life from the past to the present and then to the future. I bent a single natural fayance slab into this form and coloured it with oxides. From one viewpoint the couple’s families they were born in are dominant. The home where the couple came from are represented as two houses with big human profiles, window-eyes of different shapes and arched roof-like forehead. The lacy motifs of DNA and Tree of Life waving upwards between them symbolize their connection and the genetic continuity. From the opposite viewpoint the couple is prominent. Their bodies’ contours are the two families’ big profiles. The members of the couple are looking at each other below the sun and the symbols of continuity and future appear again between them.”

“My unique technique, with the flat plane turning into a three dimensional space, therefore allowing us to look the artwork from different viewpoints and see different aspects, gives expression to the universality and complexity of how the meaning of a single concept transforms through different viewpoints. It also represents how our perception is limited and we can observe only a few of all the dimensions. These views – though often clashing, finally complete each other and together form the whole.”
