Artist Statement

My work encourages people to recognize the essence of humanity and the power of the human spirit, aiming to express a wide variety of human feelings, to show the delicacy and beauty of life, as well as demonstrating the diversity and equality between people and different cultures. My purpose is to show how much we have and how much more we all could have by working together for a unified goal of peace, love and caring. Through my sculpture, I hope to encourage people to see the basic values, the magnificence and strength of humanity and nature.
