Wu You love series of sculpture works:
"Human Pain Points"
Sculpture / stainless steel / 80cm * 20cm * 54cm
Roses are so beautiful but prickly, like human feelings.
Growing words and thorns together, there is the "Wen Thorns" series of works. Love is the common language of mankind.
The book is one, a thorny creature that has a growing power.
Caught up in love, we cling to each other, each holding on to a word, overlapping in a certain time and space, but unable to continue to focus.
Love is giving, but it is also invisible and harsh, to be "worthy", to be "worthy".
Love is pardon, tolerance to shelter.
Love is open, unloading its armor and delivering itself unguarded. Therefore, people in love are fragile.
Love is to let go, not to force, to exchange willingness for willingness. Therefore, the person in love is determined.
Ten thousand "for your own good" is not as good as one "I do."
Ten thousand "I thought" is not as good as one "you random".
Love is a gentle wind resistance. Love is one-way street and happens to meet a retrograde person.
Attack with the left hand, surrender with the right hand. Principled and measured.
Parents and children, men and women, uncle Lori, if love has persistence, it is inevitable to hurt, the deeper the love, the more painful the pain.
That understated affection, memory is a choice, and so is love.
People, places, time, space, are all recipes.
Love is a human pain point.

"Love is never hidden"
Life has cycles, and so does love. Flowers blossom silently, regardless of the wind and moon.
Trees are cut down and have roots, and mushrooms will grow.
Life only migrates, never stands still.
A love that has not been fulfilled, a soul that has not even met.
On the road we have traveled, there are always flowers that meet.
Love is not eternal, but constantly growing and fissioning.
Love never stops, and it always blooms with new life, just as dead wood also blooms in spring.
The book is one, and new elements are implanted on love, like mushrooms growing on trees, which is a symbol of life regeneration.
As long as love continues, love must appear in some new life.
Love has never been hidden, harder to restrain than coughing, more brilliant than the stars.
"Love is dissolving"
Love either freezes or melts. Love has no finished form, only when it is carried out. Love is as fleeting as ice and snow. The safe can hold hundreds of millions of assets, but it can't save a heart. Reconcile with the world, reconcile with love and hate. If life is only like the first sight, every day is the first day of life, every morning is a long goodbye reunion, and every road is the only way.
Tick-tock, acknowledgment is more urgent than commitment.
Not a single drop of water is wasted, either sent to the clouds by the sun or sneaked into the earth to moisten the silence.
Love like a tidal wave? Love is just water, and every drop is also a drop of lakes and oceans. Water and water keep saying hello goodbye.
"The Key to Love"
Men talk by mouth, women fall in love with their ears. Women inherently need praise, and men's sweet words always work. What is said well, what is not heard, is wisdom. It is said that when it comes to love, the way men and women get along lies in listening and speaking. Moving words are like spitting leaves and blossoming, and those who listen attentively are full of ears. Deep love forgets words, true love in front of, men are timid, women are brave. It is only logic that is persuaded, and logic is not feelings. Love is intuition, electric flint, is seeing and knowing. I wasn't so beautiful, but only because I met you, my beauty bloomed so much.
Being able to speak well is the key to love.
Wu You persimmon ruyi series of sculpture works:
"Top Thing"
Sculpture / stainless steel plating / 90cm * 26cm * 28cm
In any era, people who are at the top are as scarce. Coronavirus, closures, layoffs, unemployment, supply cuts, debt... The pressure is high and resisting means everything. Persimmons are red and hot, and persimmons are chinese-style beauty. Good things must be resisted, and good persimmons (things) fall to the ground, and they become rotten persimmons (things). Three people top persimmon, just like a team, some people smile, some people shout, some people make funny faces, heaven descends on a big responsibility, good things are often difficult things, the more weighty the more you test your endurance. Good things can withstand, bad things can be carried, and difficult things can be eaten, the premise is that things must be upheld! People are piled up by things, and things are topned by people
"Who's in control"
Sculpture / stainless steel plating / 50cm * 26cm * 28cm
You can't do things without causing trouble, you can't do things without doing things. Fences are not limits, stagnation is a cage. Confined to things, panting, pretending to work hard, is also a kind of inward volume.
Technological progress, the reconstruction of the world order, artificial intelligence liberates people, and in turn controls people.
People are trapped in things, punching and kicking, struggling in persimmons.
The manipulator is in control, but who is in control of the rain-turning hand?
Technology and people are interdependent and challenge each other. People make technology advance by leaps and bounds, and technology overwhelms people.
How can we sit still, we must do it as a token of waiting.
Tools are good, but being tools is not good.
Freedom is not the whole world saying Yes to you, but you have to retain the confidence to say NO.
Live this life well and let the wind of freedom blow.
"There's something good to do"
Sculpture / FRP coloring / 55cm * 77cm * 51cm
Persimmons are as good as they want, and we are so obsessed. When good things come, a man and a woman plunge into a huge persimmon with only their legs exposed, and they are immersed in it, oblivious. Some things can only be seen by diving into it. Actions are more meaningful than fantasies, and Persimmon tastes sweet and astringent, and things must be done consistently.
Right things are not right people, that is things bigger than human feelings; right people are not right, that is people are better than things.
Find the person you love, find the thing you love, undistracted, unwavering.
When love overlaps with marriage, when careers coincide with hobbies, when reality and ideals reconcile, you are king.
There's something good, get in it, get in it!
"Career first"
Sculpture / FRP coloring / 40cm * 46cm * 45cm
The cause is the cow, the source of milk, and the continuous supply.
We can't define a person, but we can define what he does.
What kind of things, what kind of people to achieve.
Good things nurture people, bad things grind people, and difficult things refine people.
Ten thousand kinds of temperament, a persimmon (thing) can be cured.
Career is important, career is important, career is important.
