Catalogue Note:

This work was completed in 1987, and is a art of Yuyu Yang's stainless steel "Cosmos Series." The phrase "heaven and earth" is he way that Chinese describe all of nature, nd it is a way to describe the beauty of symmetry" and "completeness." It also has feeling of being vast and unlimited. The Chinese concept of Yin and Yang is concisely ontained in this phrase, including form and ormless, real objects and formless spirit, he self and perfect oneness. Yuyu Yang has lways liked to find creative inspiration in he contemplation of this concept. Between eaven and earth exist all the vast mysteries f the cosmos, stretching without limits, timulating eternal glory, attracting and issipating karma, filling the cosmos with azzling beauty. It is "destiny" to complete he propagation of life, the lourishing hopes f countless "contented lives."
