This project explores the rich symbolism of the Chinese zodiac, a fascination sparked by my deep dive into Chinese history, mythology, and philosophy. While I don't subscribe to faith or religion, I find the wisdom of Buddhist teachings compelling. Each zodiac animal carries its own unique personality and story, and I aim to bring these characters to life through my interpretation. The blend of mythology and character interpretation makes these animals more than mere symbols—they become windows into a cultural legacy that is both mystical and profound.
Materials: Acrylic and gouache on plaster and styrofoam
Colors: White, black, red, green
Variations: One of a kind
