Johnson Tsang’s white porcelain sculptures draw on a clean, classic aesthetic to depict uncanny and grotesque expressions. Tsang’s work brushes against aesthetics from across art history, but his primary inspiration lies in personal experience and his intense, bizarre dreams, which he makes palpable through his sculptures.

The 2022 limited sculpture edition, Lucid Dream II - Who's There? by Johnson Tsang offers a hyperreal and reflective experience for the viewer - a potent example of the themes he explores in his work. An integrated mirror invites viewers to see their reflection through a freakish mouth, stretched upon by hands creeping out of its throat.

Johnson Tsang’s Lucid Dream II - Who's There? has sold out. The good news? We will release new editions by Johnson Tsang in the future, available to buy online at Avant Arte.

Behind the scenes

Johnson Tsang12 collaborationsJohnson Tsang’s surreal porcelain sculptures balance illusionary compositions with hyperreal aesthetics. 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.
