Design Concept
The world is connected in a myriad of intricate ways by the formless dao - a way of existing in the world…like an emotion or a conscious perception. Fish come from oceans, rivers and ponds to meet upon this hulu gourd. In pursuit of the heart’s dao, people come together and relationships are formed. In China, this is called yuan, a word akin to fate or destiny. Here two fish meet and look toward the same future, in harmony with each other and the times. From the front, the fish appear in delicate relief. From the back, the high-polish and engraved surface implies the presence of deep waters. Front and back together cleverly the internal and external qualities of existence and non-existence.
世界是紧密联繫的，无形中的“道”将事物串联。“道”是一种存在境界，也如同情感一样，只可意会感知。鱼儿来自上下不同的江海，此刻在同一只葫芦相遇，天南海北的人们，追循心中的“道”，相识结交。在中国，人们把这份情谊称为“缘”。两条相遇的鱼儿，望向同一个方向，借洪流之势远行，与时代共唱。正面，鱼儿浮雕，雕刻精细。反面，高抛光、阴刻展现更深远的水下意境。正反两面，巧妙体现葫芦的的内外有无。
* Note: As the art pieces are individually hand-made, the color and dimensions will vary slightly.
