Sculptures by Zheng Yukui and Wu Liang Yan

I came across these delightful sculptures that were exhibited at a hotel lobby some time ago. They have expressions that are mostly cheerful and the proportions are cartoon-style, but to me there is such melancholia in them.

Or perhaps it is just the lighting of the exhibition, casting such shadows on them! Haha

Mural

Beautiful mural I stopped to admire. Pity about the peeling bits. I wonder if it’s the paint naturally peeling because of conditions, or the actions of some naughty hands. Whatever it is, I guess it goes with the territory for murals in public spaces, especially areas with high human traffic flow. But it still makes me sad, seeing that it’s so beautiful.
