Concept of artwork 設計理念:

I hope to bring a positive perspective to a dispiriting time through the representation of the SARS-Cov-2 virus as colourful, almost candy-like, beautiful, yet insidious objects. Covid-19 has done profound damage to humankind, physically and emotionally. Yet the virus is simply another species sharing limited resources on the planet with humankind. There is a dichotomy between good and evil. But often it is simply a matter of who’s perspective.

其他說明:

A series of tiny sculptures, each approximately 3cm in diameter. Using multiple colors of porcelain slip, underglaze, and glaze, no two sculptures are alike.

It seems to promote the virus, as they are very colorful and good looking.
