Giant Sea Creature Sculpture by Artist
Suspended from a 22-meter-tall ceiling is Wu Zei, a massive sculpture by the artist Huang Yong Ping. It depicts a creature that’s a cross between an octopus and a cuttlefish, who appears simultaneously menacing and sympathetic. The mutated being invades the space it inhabits, wrapping its giant tentacles around poles and beams. At the same time, it conveys a feeling of despair—with trash and small animals stuck to its limbs—as the artist reflects on the maritime catastrophes caused by man.
