About the Item

"Lion" Resin Sculpture 11" x 6" x 6" inch by Huang Yulong Medium: Resin Edition of 500 The lion / 那对⼉狮⼦ Baiyu’s “Lion” is inspired by the traditional Chinese habit of placing two stone lions on either side of the door. Chinese people pay great attention to water. Placing a pair of stone lions on the left and right sides of the door can not only ward off evil spirits but also bring auspiciousness. White Jade reinterprets the lion that protects the door with its iconic image of a man in a hoodie. The person holding the stone drum represents the male, and the drum symbolizes prosperity and good luck; the person holding the baby in the sweatshirt represents the female, which means prosperity and inheritance from generation to generation. The image of a man in a hoodie is used instead of the lion as a mascot to protect peace, making the originally gentle and powerful image of the lion full of tension and mystery. In the process of inheritance, the works have entrusted the creation and thinking of contemporary people.

In 2007 he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Sculpture from the Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute in Jiangxi Province. As one of the new generation of Chinese artists and part of the ‘post-80s generation’ and ‘only child’ generation, Huang is strongly influenced by the phenomenon of foreign culture in China, which he combines with his fascination with pottery and the material world.

He was selected by “Complex” as “25 Contemporary Chinese Artists You Need to Know” in 2013.
