高人 A Great Man
创作灵感 Inspiration
身着蓝色复古工装的小胖人稳稳站在炽红三脚高凳之巅,圆润右掌微抬成“禁止”手势,严肃神情与憨态外形在瞬间碰撞出戏谑的张力。艺术家以这种调侃姿态凝固了“站得高、望得远”的权力景象:高凳象征众生向往的“步步高升”,居高临下的视角也暗示审视与威权;背后纤小雪翼与丰腴身躯形成荒诞反差,幽默地暗示“高人一等”的天外之身。
高凳利落的线条精准调度了作品的空间节奏与比例,尽显艺术家卓越的造型功底与空间驾驭力。鲜明的色彩对比碰撞出鲜明的政治波普趣味,为作品注入高级的当代艺术气息。在“高处不胜寒”的威严背后,释放出对权力与自信的轻盈嘲讽和对步步高升的美好期许。
XIQI‘s Little Chubby clad in a retro army-green uniform stands securely atop a blazing-red, three-legged stool, raising his rounded right hand in a forbidding gesture. The collision between his stern gaze and cherubic physique generates instant comic tension. With this tongue-in-cheek pose, the artist freezes the spectacle of authority—“the higher you stand, the farther you see.” The towering stool embodies humanity’s eternal desire for upward mobility, its elevated viewpoint hinting at scrutiny and dominion, while the tiny snow-white wings sprouting from his back—so absurd against the ample body—wryly suggest a being “above the crowd.”
The stool’s crisp, economical lines conduct the work’s spatial rhythm and proportion with surgical precision, displaying the artist’s exceptional command of form and space. Vivid red-and-blue contrasts ignite a bold strain of political pop, lending the piece a refined contemporary charge. Beneath the chilly aura of height and might, the sculpture releases a light satire on power and self-confidence—and a hopeful wish that every step may rise just a little higher.
