About the Item
Designer's Note:
Perfect Scale: Standing at 28 inches (71 cm) tall, this sculpture is an ideal statement piece for a hallway console, a side table in a living area, or a recessed wall niche. Its verticality draws the eye upward without occupying a large footprint.
Sensory Appeal: Carved from aromatic Taiwanese Camphor wood, the piece releases a gentle, natural fragrance that enhances the ambiance of a room, perfect for spaces dedicated to relaxation or reading.
Warmth and Texture: The rich, amber tones and visible chisel marks add organic warmth and tactile interest, making it a perfect complement to Japandi, Minimalist, or Modern Rustic interiors.
The Story:
In "Encounter," Taiwanese artist Ser Uang Huang captures the fleeting magic of an unexpected meeting. The work is deeply inspired by the artist's poetic reflection:
"Where the heart is guided, Flowers bloom without a word. In the quiet of the heart, all things reveal themselves. A single gentle thought Is fulfillment."
The sculpture portrays a figure in a moment of pause and recognition, holding a small object with care. The posture conveys a sense of pleasant surprise and openness, as if the figure has just discovered a moment of beauty in the mundane world. Ser Uang Huang uses his signature technique of "leaving the knife marks" to shape the form, allowing the rough texture of the chisel to contrast with the smooth, expressive lines of the figure's posture. This approach highlights the natural vitality of the material. Carved from Taiwanese Camphor Wood, the sculpture features natural color gradients that transition from deep earth tones to warm highlights, imbuing the work with a sense of life and warmth. It stands as a reminder that when the mind is quiet and soft, the world reveals its hidden wonders.
