A stone adorned with a sterling silver swirling dragon. As a totem, Dragons traditionally symbolize potent and auspicious powers, particularly control over water, rainfall, typhoons, and floods. The dragon is also a symbol of power, strength, and good luck for people who are worthy of it in East Asian culture. The Dragon is also the fifth of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals. The Year of the Dragon is associated with the Earthly Branch symbol è¾°, pronounced chen.
About the stones from Gordon Gu, China - 'Harmony of Stones and Water': Echoes of Tradition in Chinese Beauty" In Guangxi, nature's diverse stones echo the earth's rhythm, fostering a deep connection between nature and humanity. These treasures, reminiscent of mountains and waters, symbolize the region's essence. The landscape, akin to an ancestral scroll, embodies traditional Chinese culture. Crafted by nature's hand, the stones merge with Guangxi's beauty. Through artistic reinterpretation, the exhibition blends tradition with contemporary art, bridging past and present. Inspired by Mi Fu's tale, it celebrates China's stone appreciation tradition, urging modern society to reconnect with its humanistic roots in Chinese culture and philosophy.
LAdV and Gordon Gu, both committed to infusing art into every aspect of life, unite in a majestic collaboration inspired by the East.
