Crystal Animal, Horse, Blaze

Blaze  

Spreading like fire
Racing without end
The eight mythical steeds of King Mu
share a communal will
Each the other's wings
A thousand, ten thousand more
Could not compare –
Charging as one
An eternal, burning passion

炽热

奔驰如焰
疾驰不息

八骏齐心，彼此为翼

千马万马
皆敌不过——

齐奔

炽热永恒的信念

Design Concept

The Horse of Fire: Blaze — embodying unity, fervor, and the flame that never fades.

Rather than depicting a tranquil plain, this artwork reveals the expanse of the earth in all its depth and complexity—mountains, chasms, cliffs, and boundless terrain shaped by motion. Within this landscape, eight steeds surge forward together. Each carries its own character and purpose: some lead the charge and carve the path ahead; others form the core, driving the momentum with steady strength; still others guard from behind, watching over the whole. Each horse fulfills its role, yet they move as one, united in direction and spirit.

Their collective power burns like flame—intense, unstoppable, and alive. Their gallop is as swift as fire through wind, no force able to contain it. The eight horses run side by side, becoming one another’s wings, their unity stronger than the might of a thousand. What they embody is not merely speed or strength, but a living spirit—fervent, eternal faith. Composed of eight steeds and thirty-two legs, this sculpture represents not only artistic vision but also a triumph of craftsmanship. Every leg must be cast and joined with absolute precision to sustain the whole, testing the outer limits of pata de verre and liuli’s structural endurance. The piece stands as a testament to technical mastery—balancing the physical challenge of large-scale form, the time-sensitive control of multiple surface treatments, the high-risk brilliance of polishing, and the material limits of liuli itself—an achievement where art and craft unite to transcend the impossible.

Wind, fire, earth, and air transform into four steeds— Excelsior, Blaze, Faith, and Ascension—each embodying a facet of life’s boundless vitality. They are not mere horses, but living symbols of creation, perseverance, and the unending pursuit of greatness. Inspired by the elemental forces of nature, each sculpture reflects a unique state of being: the foresight of excellence, the unity of passion, the steadfastness of faith, and the transcendence of spirit. Through LIULI’s refined pate de verre technique, light flows within each form, revealing energy in motion and illuminating the enduring spirit of creation, leadership, and ascent. Continuing the sculptural tradition of LIULI Crystal Art, each work embodies a vision that is both profoundly realistic and spiritually transcendent, capturing not only form with precision but surpassing realism through emotion and light. It is this harmony between technical mastery and artistic elevation that transforms every sculpture into more than an object of beauty—it becomes a vessel of spirit, carrying forward LIULI’s devotion to truth, imagination, and the artistry of the human soul.

團隊之所以迷人，
是因為它把無數個「我」凝聚成一個「我們」。
那股合力，讓方向一致，讓奔馳更有力量。

這件作品描繪的不是一片平坦的原野，
而是廣袤而複雜的大地。
大地經過地殼運動，有高山、鴻溝，甚至是峭壁與絕境。
正是在這樣的環境裡，八匹駿馬奔馳向前。

牠們神態各異：
有的領軍衝鋒，帶頭開路；
有的作為中堅力量，穩步推進；
還有的在後方守護，環伺四周。
每一匹馬都有自己的角色，卻又齊心一致，共同奔赴同一個方向。

這股力量，如火焰般熾熱，燃燒不息。
奔馳之勢疾如烈焰，沒有任何東西能阻擋。
八駿並肩，彼此成為對方的羽翼。千馬萬馬也比不過這份齊心一志的力量。
牠們所展現的，不只是速度和力量，而是一種精神——熾熱、永恆的信念。

八匹馬、三十二條腿，
它考驗的是脫蠟鑄造的極致工藝，
每一隻腿都必須完整，才能成就整件作品。
這是一場藝術與工藝的考驗，也是對「不可能」的再次突破。
