NAN LI, China


In traditional Chinese culture, women are thought of as introverted, modest and fertile. I however want to glorify the female in the opposite way. Many archaeological artifacts show evidence of ‘vulva-worship’ and many symbols of fertility include symbols such as flowers, fish, frogs and so forth. Inspired by nature and female physical characteristics, I combine these elements, rebuilding them into a hybrid creature which conveys the alluring beauty and even dangerous attractions of female genitalia Blooming brooch (Fimo, thorns, acrylic paint, stainless steel)
