| Description |
Fish, fishhook and two gloves. The artist wants to express the Chinese ancient philosophy notion of "Ying” and “Yang” - meaning positive and negative. The philosophy goes back to an ancient Chinese philosophy book written by a man of the name Zhou Yu during the Zhou Dynasty (1050 BC -256 AD). The two Chinese characters in circles on the geometrical pattern on the two gloves are "Qian" and "Kun" meaning "Sky" and "Earth". |
