Snow Wonderland
The piece is from Li Chen's the Great Ether series that demonstrates the transition from a rigid to a more free sculptural composition. The artist's preference for silver appears in the snow covered peaks. Here, Li Chen depicts a mystical being traveling freely on the mountain top and in the snow. Through the roundness and simplicity in form and lively gesture, Li Chen transforms Taoist idea of vivacity and growth with a playful tone.
