Inspired by his multicultural experiences and over 30 years of development, Ju Ming applies both traditional and contemporary materials, such as wood and stainless steel in this series. The wood carving sculpture is the most significant, for Ju carves directly on a log with his signature sharp cutting strokes that create one-of-a-kind works. MGM is proud to exhibit over 40 pieces of unique wood carvings made by Ju, including painted wood, black and white painted wood, as well as wood relief sculptures, making it an extraordinary, must-see exhibition.
