Inspired by ancient Chinese bronze vessels, I crafted these ceremonial ceramics to memorialize the fish I killed (metaphorically) in a previous work. In this work, I commemorate my food just as I would commemorate my ancestors. We consider ourselves superior forms of life, yet we do not sufficiently recognize our evolutionary origins nor the life being sacrificed to sustain our own lives.

​

In this work, I am also looking at my past self, and closing a chapter in my life as an artist.
