Liu worked at the jingdezhen pottery and porcelain sculpture factory before formally studying sculpture experiences that heavily influenced his earlier more autobiographical small scale sculptural works. If you describe untitled series as an obvious. Liu jianhua s primary working materials are porcelain artifacts and waste products imported from foreign countries.

In this beautiful celadon work container series 2009 liu acknowledges the magnificent ceramic heritage of china by re creating traditional ritual vessel shapes such as stem cups and gu wine vessel and placing them alongside more contemporary shapes to present an impressive installation of 37 pieces of varying size and shape. He is drawn to these materials because of their cultural implications and material history. Liu jianhua horizon at beijing commune is the latest presentation of his exploration within the withdrawal of those popular contemporary elements in his works.
