In this new limited edition sculpture, Johnson Tsang blends two faces into one surreal meditation on identity. 

Remembrance is a translation of the artist’s original porcelain sculpture from his acclaimed Lucid Dream II series, which explores the liminal space between the conscious and subconscious through emotive sculptures of contorted faces. 

In this work, Johnson intertwines two faces to symbolise how memories "constitute the scenery of our lives" and shape our present sense of self. For Johnson, the piece embodies a necessary acceptance of the past, capturing the delicate fusion between holding on and letting go.

If you want to truly remember or forget, the only way is to accept the past, whether good or bad, happy or sad, love or hate, clear or blurred…Because they are the important elements that constitute the scenery of our lives and create the present.

Despite their delicate craftsmanship, they depict grotesque scenarios: a human face twisted like a wet towel; a fed-up newborn trapped inside a birdcage; or stacks of human heads squashed inside glass cabinets. Half cherub, half Buddha, the artist’s bulbous figures have an amusing fleshiness. While Tsang’s work recalls aesthetics from across art history, such as Chinese ceramics and Neo-classical sculpture, the self-taught artist predominantly draws from personal experience and his intense, bizarre dreams. In his waking life these are given in physical existence via his art.
