 Gypsum, compared to wood, is an artificial material - proportion of water and the gypsum powder needed to be prepared by oneself, then mix and pour them into a suitable container for solidification. I collect boxes every day, such as throw-away lunchbox, biscuit boxes, tool packing box, express boxes, etc. Most of them are containers that are easy to find in everyday life. Although they are the products of industrialization, their shapes and sizes are very diverse, which provides the imaginary basis of "Carving according to the shape of the stone".

I am sensitive to and concerned about people's state, and I like to record and express the feeling people bring to me. Most of the figures in these reliefs come from my close friends. Some reliefs were even made directly from my usual sketches. In sculpture techniques, I mainly studied ancient Egyptian, Babylonian and ancient Chinese statues. I think they are simple and unadorned, refined and lively. But in the past, most of these techniques were used to make statues of gods and kings, and reliefs are solemn and monumental in my impression.
For these reasons, I continued to make these sculptures in this way.
