This week, I am running pretty late for submitting entries for the WPC: Work of Art.
Here are two pieces of art – both wood sculptures by my favorite artist Ju Ming.
It appears that the artist has retained a lot of the original trees; minimum sculpturing to give us these wonderful sculptures.
The first sculpture is for a couple lying on the ground.
The second one is a vertical one, representing a seated girl.
Since 2007, Ju Ming only painted his sculptures with white color only.
Please enjoy 🙂

not quite sure what to think about these
Quite up to one’s imagination!
Amazing what the artist saw in the wood and then pulled it out for all to see.
As you said, on seeing the wood, he conceived an object of art which he successfully carved out!
The first one looks like the root grew through the stone.

Think the artist has left it quite openly to the viewers’ imagination!
I love these — even before reading what they were supposed to represent, I though they looked like people. Great photos of the artist’s work.
Glad that you like the photos!
I appreciate how it’s made out of wood.
I suppose you have to choose trees with specific forms in mind.
I suppose. 🙂

A different style of work… beautiful 🙂
Thank you, Sreejith!

Thanks for reblogging this on!
These are very interesting and in a way challenging. I can see the form but I’m not sure what the artist is telling us … perhaps that does not matter
For these two sculptures, I don’t think the sculpture is trying to tell us anything other than artistically showing the ordinary attire in real life. Regards, Michael
Hmmm … that makes sense, thank-you
