About the artwork

Sculptures Expanded from Contour Lines
Presenting a new installation by the artist renowned for their paintings and sculptures crafted from wood, metal, and a variety of materials. The driving force behind this creation is the concept of “contour lines.” Traditionally utilised in cartography to comprehend the landscape, the artist delves into the aesthetic qualities inherent in these lines. Drawing inspiration from this, the artist produces a series of sculptures that intertwine elements of nature with human artifacts. Visitors will encounter vibrant objects, evoking images of meteorites from distant galaxies or the rejuvenation of Earth itself, presenting these enigmatic phenomena as vivid works of art.
