Literature

Rootcarvings has a long tradition in China. In the Qing Dynasty, a large Group of root carving artists emerged, due to the popularity of the subjekt, bringing the art to a higher level. Today, a lot of root carving treasures of the Qing Dynasty are kept in the Palace Museum and the Summer Palace of Beijing as well as in Yuyuan Garden of Shanghai.

More information

The sculpture has numerous openings within the contorted matrix of the roots which, combined with the visual evidence of the roots’ growth, creates a sense of urgent movement and vitality.
