“I have a dream of witnessing a world where all fruits retain their natural seeds and original appearance, preserving their intrinsic beauty and diversity.”
The art of porcelain restoration has long been regarded as a crucial method for safeguarding our cultural heritage. In this meticulous process, shattered porcelain pieces are carefully reconstructed, maintaining their original patterns, and filling the voids with white material. The intention is not to adorn them further but rather to allow viewers to reconnect with the essence of their pristine form and allure.
The captivating theme of “Repairing Fruits” imbues the inherent fragility of porcelain into the realm of fruits, creating a mesmerising simulation of restoration after experiencing breakage. It symbolises the delicate balance between human progress, science, and nature, reflecting how our relentless pursuit of scientific advancements has led to the asexual propagation and mass commercialisation of fruits. As we stand at the apex of civilisation, we have come to observe the world through a lens of dominion over the living beings that share this planet - animals, and even plants are not exempt from this gaze.
