I Sculpting a Monstrous Beast with Polymer Clay in Hospital
The image of Taotie originated from the patterns of monstrous beasts used for foodrelated rituals on ancient Chinese bronze vessels, and it is believed to possess mysterious powers. When I began creating this artwork, at that time, my mother suddenly fell ill, so a portion of the sculpture was completed in the hospital. I wish for this voracious beast to devour her illness. Now she has fully recovered, however this sculpture became a limited edition artwork available for sale. It seems that reality is better than wishes coming true.
