Hermes, 2023

This sculpture revitalizes the mythological essence of Hermes, the messenger god for whom it is named, in a modern and abstract form, bringing the ceaseless communication between heaven and earth into the space with a golden radiance. While the intricate and fragmented texture of the body symbolizes Hermes' complex nature as not only the messenger of the gods but also the protective deity of roads, boundaries, and travelers, the eye detail at the summit portrays his ever-watchful intellect and ability to perceive the hidden. Through an artistic language, this work imprisons the dynamic god of ancient Greece within a static sculptural form, serving as an eternal "monument-message" that bridges sacred whispers from beyond time with the architectural aesthetics of the present day.
