Liuligongfang’s Buddha in Glass is Purely Spiritual

Buddha-inspired glass art by Liuligongfang, a glass art workshop founded by Loretta Yang and Chang Yi.

TAIWAN---Liuligongfang has just launched a major art exhibition that is uninterested in courting a mainstream audience. No subject is contemporary; everything is spiritual. Only With Compassion is divided into two parts, both tied to the Buddhist faith. One section takes flowers as its theme, a symbol of purity and life. The other is based purely on Buddha. Created mostly by Yang Hui-shan, they are serene sculptures with a melancholy undercurrent. Like all Liuligongfang works, the glass Buddhas were created with an expensive and technically difficult pate-de-verre method, or “lost-wax casting.”[link]
