Monkey Figurine (Extraordinary) - Our Monkey King

The Collection: My Positive Outlook on Life is What makes Me Remarkable

Design Concept:

Inspired in the Year of the Monkey by the greatest of all monkeys—the monkey king “Sun WuKong”—the glass artwork here depicts a hero from legend. One of the most widely celebrated works in Chinese literature, “Journey to the West” follows the story of this hero across thousands of miles. Sun, a sort of “demi-god,” could transform himself into any of 72 manifestations with just a pinch of the fur. Here, he sits atop a bunch of bananas, the one-to-one proportions representing his ability to obtain whatever he so chooses. Being true to the story, LIULI’s Chinese glass art sculpts a monkey king that is as strong as he is witty, clever and mischievous. It represents a strength and intelligence that everyone can aspire to.

作品設計概念：

作品的靈感來自於所有猴子中最偉大的猴子--猴王 "孫悟空"--這個玻璃藝術品描繪了一個來自傳奇的英雄。作為中國文學中最廣為流傳的作品之一，《西遊記》講述了這位英雄跨越千里的故事。孫悟空是一種 "半神"，只需捏一下皮毛就能變成72種表現形式中的任何一種。在這裡，他坐在一串香蕉上面，一對一的比例代表他有能力獲得他所選擇的任何東西。為了忠實於故事，琉璃藝術雕刻了一個強壯的猴王，他機智、聰明、調皮。它代表了每個人都可以嚮往的力量和智慧。

* Note: As the art pieces are individually hand-made, the color and dimensions will vary slightly.
