灋．守護神

Xiezhi has always been regarded as the symbol of justice in Chinese ancient law culture. Xiezhi emanates awe-inspiring justices that exterminate all evil and puts fears in the hearts of the wrongdoers.
The artwork derives inspiration from the rich Chinese cultural element of “Taichi”, which emphasizes the traditional Chinese philosophy of distinguishing right from wrong, as well as seeking a balance between Yin and Yang. In other words, the objective is to institute and implement the law with the aspiration and spirit of philanthropy in mind. In particular, the drum-shape further signifies the symbolic meaning of vigorous effort and imposing righteousness.
The metallic railing spiraling upwards around the artwork symbolizes the expectations for further self-improvement and development.
