May-ling Tang

May-ling is a metal fabricator and sculpture artist. She is deeply drawn to time and the cycles of life. Not only how birth, life, death, and decay transpires through plants and bodies but also through objects like metal and concrete. Fascinated by how the beauty of time is shown through rust, the crumbling of walls, and the deterioration of bodies. She uses this inspiration to create dark surreal dream of texture and color through sculpture. Dedicated to reusing and repurposing, she uses found objects and materials. Combining those items with mixed mediums to emulate the colors and textures she is drawn to in nature. Using a number of materials, metal, clay, plaster, paper, wax, plants, concrete, and acid to express through sculpture the magic and dreams she feels through the cycles of life and death.
