Crystal Mythical Creature, Dragon, The Space Between Heaven and Earth
he Collection: Directional Clarity Design Concept: As the most powerful mythological creature in Chinese culture, the dragon is a symbol for more than simple raw strength—it is a symbol for virtue and power in kindness. LIULI artists chose this design, complete with the ruyi-shaped accompaniment of water to represent that strength. As the finale and grandest piece in the 2018 collection Directional Clarity, “The Space between Heaven and Earth,” here expresses a steadfast conviction through coupling the grace of heavenly wisdom and earthly virtues.
龙,在中国的概念里,源自一种对「力量」的想像。 古代对于龙的图腾崇拜,让中国人在洪荒时期,有精神的寄託。相信这种巨大的力量,无所不能。在中国人的信仰中,龙是沟通人间与上天的仲介,人们既希望得到龙的庇护,也希望上天赐予更多的福祉。作品「八万里干坤」,神龙盘踞在云之上、水之涯,寓涵生生不息之意。 而腾龙镇守,代表光明与希望,为人们带来内心的勇气与祝福。 作品注重情境的营造,先以写意的方式,刻画云水的翻涌滚动,再以写实的方式,精雕细琢地将龙的神情姿态,自信逍遥的盘踞于天地之上,彷若拥有无穷尽的力量,凡事尽能掌握。作品的雕塑,龙的身姿遒劲有力,迴转盘旋,且越靠近尾部越细,在制作中稍有不慎,尾巴极易断裂,复杂的工艺,过程全凭工艺师的经验巧劲。作品的颜色,龙由红至金黄,云水由蓝至金黄,色彩丝丝蕴染,层层递近,两者相互交织,融为一体。
