Look With This WorkA familiar animal made strange through time
Ni Youyu approaches the elephant through delicate handwork and an image language with an old-world feeling. A familiar animal becomes slightly unfamiliar, carrying the artist's ongoing interest in time, nature, and traditional visual sensibility.
