This is a “collision” between traditional Chinese folk craftsmanship and contemporary arts. The image of Chinese peacock is expressed with the “paper flower” craft of Chinese folks. Returning to the tradition, we make Chinese folk craftsmanship embrace the contemporary arts and enter our contemporary life, awakening the authentic aesthetic nature of our native land.


 


I. “Peacock--Farewell Song”


The huge “peacock” seems to be reborn out of the strong flames. Death means rebirth. This is the last cry from the peacock. It’s brilliant, resplendent and heroic. With its remaining strength, it flaps its huge wings for the last time to sing the last “farewell song” for us. Then it passes away, only leaving its shadow here.


 


I. “Peacock--Great Waves”


“Peacock--Great Waves” is a work echoing with “Peacock--Farewell Song”. “Great waves” are the waves stirred by the rebirth after “Peacock--Farewell Song”. I shake the heaven and earth, I believe in being towards death, and I flap my huge wings to stir a hurricane to sweep the world. It is my courage.
