Inharmonius

This diorama was inspired by -Ai Wei Wei, Never Sorry-. It is meant to support human rights in China. Figures are Reaper (policemen heavily converted). Meaning of the symbols: Three Children: Violation of China's one-child policy Door Number: 9413: (gau2 sei2 yat1 saang1 in Cantonese) – nine die to one live, meaning 90% chance of being dead and only 10% chance of being alive, or survived from such situations (a narrow escape). Wall Art: Literally: the Changjiang River waves behind drive the waves ahead. Meaning: Each new generation excels the last one. Graffiti: River Crab – internet slang for censorship Text – “Inharmonious” Book Cover: Falun Dafa emblem – symbol of the banned Chinese religion Falun Gong

Joy, I agree, this diorama transcends the typical painted miniatures on this forum. It looked great in person at NOVA Open - congratulations on the silver, BTW! I look forward to seeing more from you. -- Jack
