The subtle lines of this piece blur purposefully and gracefully the boundaries between the virtual and the real. This artfully rendered sculpture in the shape of a bottle gourd interweaves imagery associated with Taichung’s Qingshui and Huludun districts. In addition to the aesthetically appealing outline of bottle gourds, the splashes of blue color across this sculpture allude to the crystal-clear waters that regularly nourish the Fengyuan area. The dynamic curves and energetic interplay between these splashes further celebrate the role of “water” as a symbol of virtue at Nan Yang Elementary.
