Ghost/Fire depicts a bouquet in a ceramic vase bursting into flames, lit by the light emanating from a lunar eclipse and a pink glow rising from below the horizon. Artist Xiao Wang delineates the relationship between the subject and viewer through first person perspective, our arms reaching out across the table toward the vase. This work was inspired by the impact of family stories on one's psyche, where shared histories and internalized darkness can reduce even the most beautiful and lively to dust. The artist has hand-embellished each work in the edition with acrylic glazes and gloss to make flowers more vibrant along with additional leaves and buds, making each print unique.
