Intricate wire sculpture by Chinese artist, Shi Jindian.
This kind of thing just blows my mind.

“I don’t like hard, heavy materials like bronze, stone and clay. I have a fondness for fine and delicate things.” --Shi Jindian


Thus, it goes without saying where the inspiration for his pieces comes from.
In interviews he mentions that the intention behind his pieces is to convey a sense of calm and serenity.



The pieces are created by wrapping wire around each individual piece and then either removing or destroying the original object, leaving behind only the wire shell.
