Contemplation

Location : CHINESE MAINLAND, Chengdu
Artist : Hew Chee Fong

Carved from polished Shanxi granite, this work by Malaysian Chinese artist Hew Chee Fong calls us to stop and rest a while. Inspired by the wise monks from the nearby Daci Temple, the shape of rippling water represents thoughts disturbing the calm of a mind in meditation, while the large stones resting on the seats symbolise the weight of thought.
