Lot Essay

“As is the case with all the prized pieces of art, the movement of every grain, every texture, is defined by the innate spirit and energy of the work to faithfully and naturally demonstrate the kinetic energy of the form. This is the focus of ‘actualising the exterior with the soul’ to vocalise the pulse of life. A successful piece of art is never accomplished through the haphazard assemblage of loose bits: it is alive with its own defining character, instinctual, and one-of-a-kind. This is the spirit of natural.” - Ju Ming
