New Born (The Embrace of Yin and Yang) Ceramic Figurative Sculpture

This compact sculpture folds the body into a circular, almost self-consuming loop, where two placid heads and squat feet anchor an otherwise centrifugal motion. The glossy, enamel-like surface—black pooling into a deep aperture, edged by a blood-warm red—turns the torso into a vortex, as if the figure carries an inner engine of appetite, thought, or time. Humor and unease coexist: the creature reads as both guardian and captive of its own hollow center, embodying the paradox of self-containment that borders on self-erasure. In the measured symmetry of the ring and the tactile modeling of skin and scales, the work stages a quiet drama between animal tenderness and a modern, almost industrial void.
