SHAN SHAN SHENG Exhibition at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Miami, as part of Sotheby’s Contemporary Chinese Art Exhibition. Back to glass art
ABACUS1046-771 BC (Western
Zhou Dynasty)
from "Chinese
ancient invention series"
Abacus
is a
glass sculpture recalling the
ancient Chinese counting machine. Sheng recasts the abacus as a
kind of vast, pre-digital computer
and evokes the constant numbering of modern life.
It is an outdoor glass sculpture, measuring 4.5 m long and 2.2 m high, with 63
glass balls supported by stainless steel rods.
Sheng collaborates
closely with the master glassblowers of Murano to mix and arrange pigments for
sculptures and installations. Sheng's glass works are marked by ethereal
streaks and speckles that reflect her hand and line.
