She is Waiting...她在等...

Usually when I finished one sculpture, I move right on to the next one without much sentimental attachment. Even if my original plan was to do a series, I tend to give up after the first one and have no interest left to explore it more. Doing one is doing all. I will jump to my next inspiration right away.

But this girl seized me back. Something drew my attention back to her again and again. I can almost smell the faint quivering breath hidding in her gentle curves. I don't know where did it come from. But this is the one that I need to explore more.

She is also the first one that I made directly with plaster. I feel quite comfortable working this way.

** She is Waiting (Bronze) was presented as an inaugural present to Mr. Donald Tsang at the Opening Ceremony of JCCAC in 2008.

"Since when did Chairman Mao ever play golf?" giggled my mom. "No too long ago," I said," not too long"


These were patinated in 2009.

Lots of fun patinated the Maos. He's now so fashionable!

All the ten Maos were sold in 2009.

She's a Beauty 唐美人

It's hard to imagine that once upon a time in China, fat women were considered beautiful. Imperial Concubine Yang (楊貴妃 718A.D. - 755 A.D.) must be the fattest one among the long list of all Chinese concubines. I wonder how fat she actually was. Too bad that there's never a record of her official weight.
