About the Item

While previous works in this series anchored the sacred, untouched status of the porcelain totem, this canvas turns to the exact moment of its destruction—both physical and mental. The composition captures a silent, dramatic climax: a child's bare feet standing upon a highly recognizable vintage carpet pattern, surrounded by the shards of a shattered fish decanter. For multiple generations, this set held an immense moral and symbolic value. It was never mere tableware, but rather a tangible manifestation of the ideals, stability, and hard-won achievements of a bygone era. The object was bound by an absolute domestic taboo; children were strictly forbidden from even handling it, as any carelessness threatened a profound family disruption. A single broken piece was a genuine domestic tragedy, shattering not just fragile earthenware, but the very marker of familial prosperity. This painting serves as a powerful psychological trigger. I capture a point of no return: the precise moment when an accident exposes the vulnerability of a domestic cult, and an object fiercely guarded by generations is instantly transmuted into pure, piercing emotion, cementing its place within the realm of conceptual fine art.
