Artwork title : 鼎

鼎, 2023

Plaster, charcoal paint, and polyurethane

13 x 18 dia. x 11.5 cm

Part of an ongoing Vessels series, a contemporary rendition of ritual tripod cauldrons from the early Bronze Age of China. Interested in the internal clash of human primal instincts and the pursuit of technological advancements, the artist renders the modernized primitive tools non functional, in line with the vessel's faux futuristic aesthetic.
