All her creations are subject to a multi-step process of clay modeling, molding, sculpting, sanding and lacquering.The objects of her work are based on the spiritual being and her sculptures are inspired by the ancient teachings of the Daoism. The word DAO translates as "path" or "way" of life. Daoistpropriety and ethics focus on nature, the relationship between humanity and the cosmos, health and longevity as well as action through inaction, which is thought to produce harmony with the universe.
