Explore the details within each design below.
CHASING THE PEARL
Chasing The Pearl was inspired by the dragon; the oldest and most meaningful of all animals represented in Chinese art. The Chinese dragon is a revered and auspicious creature, distinct from its malevolent Western counterparts. While traditionally portrayed front-facing as a symbol of imperial prowess, it is often depicted in side profile to display its benevolent side, symbolising the protection great power wields.
WIND DANCER, HEAVEN CALLER
Wind Dancer, Heaven Caller was inspired by the belief in the immortal Chinese crane; celestial beings crossing boundaries between the mortal sphere and the divine. Representing a harmonious relationship when depicted as a pair, the two cranes are illustrated in the ‘wind dancer’ and ‘heaven caller’ archetypal silhouettes of the Song Dynasty, accompanied by a flourish of blooms in the traditional Bird and Flower Painting style of the era.
ZOUYU, CRY THE DEER
Zouyu, Cry The Deer was inspired by the legend of the zouyu, a mythical white tiger-like beast with a gentle, herbivorous nature. The benevolent, vegetarian, and virtuous zouyu only appears when a sagacious ruler reigns and a sighting is an auspicious omen. The design title was inspired by the ancient poem,Yu, Yu, Cry The Deer. Within this design, the protagonist absentmindedly feasts on the rare and precious Peaches of Immortality, white the soft, quiet fawn blends unnoticed into the fallen fruit.
