Cuboids, MMIX - MMX broadly adopts a minimalist approach. Symbolically, it encapsulates the day-to-day international issues, be they political or economical, past or present events.

Through the kaleidoscope of these intricate East and West interactions, it is intended to aspire to a virtual melting pot of lessons. From conflicts, which took place due to blatant misunderstandings etc, consequently, the materials used and the various images and textual displays suggest different cultures and imply specific metaphorical representations.

This 3D sculpture is put together from handmade brick-like unit components made of the Financial Times and Chinese newspapers. All artificial renderings such as painting and carving etc are deemed unnecessary.
