On many starry nights, I threw off so many people and things on my shoulders that I fell asleep before even taking off my hair tie. I had a long series of dreams, but I can’t remember what I dreamed about. I only know that I was so busy that I missed my favorite "Whale Fight" (a program on the Animal Planet channel at a certain time).
Rather than typing on the keyboard here to express some of my feelings, Chinese sculptor Wang Ruilin will use the combination of animals and nature to present the "dream" he recognizes.
The title of this series of works - Chasing Dreams comes from Wang Ruilins own imagination, combining nature with people and things in normal conditions to create balance. These sculptured animals may not be called lifelike, but Wang Ruilin is eager to infuse them with spirituality and oriental charm.
In the process of sculpture, the elegance of classical painting and the mysterious artistic spirit of the East are contained, and a series of works that are slightly melancholy but strongly release vitality are permeated.
A big fish is loaded with mountains and rivers. We can try to interpret the concept of connection with nature, but in fact it is a Noahs Ark. When the end of the world comes, the mountains and rivers carried by the big fish and all that can be redeemed The soul.
I like this idea very much. The end of the world has always been a topic of discussion. People will always be heroic from their own perspective, just like we build a big ship to save the remaining animals. But here it is the other way around. The mountains, seas, woods, and gurgling water are all carried by this fish. We are attached and dependent on you. Can we still say that we are the best among animals?
Psychedelic elegance is how I feel about this series of works. I always have the fantasy of seeing a scene and then the horse galloping into the distance the next second, and the space is suddenly expanded in several places by the sense of distance. Do you have the same feelings as me?
