Ideas behind my monkey: when i first received the sculpture i was captivated by the details on it and was stunned how fragile it looked. I wanted to extend this idea with a Chinese porcelain theme, to connect this with my roots and the idea of me being 1.5 generation and my heritage being a fragile treasure to keep in the arts. motifs of the chrysanthemum and Chinese symbols are extended though out the sculpture as a link to the year of the Monkey. more info please check out the site http://parnell.net.nz/chinese-monkeys/wei-lun-ha/
