What is the composition of the Yueyang Tower sculpture?

The sculpture of Yueyang Tower also pays attention to the integrity of composition, with many patterns of yin and yang opposing each other and paired shapes. Two phoenix birds, two dragons, a pair of butterflies, a pair of cranes, a pair of magpies or two bats are often placed in a square with one on top, one on the left and one on the right, chasing and frolicking, or dancing, stretching freely and bringing out the best in each other, giving people many beautiful associations.

The pursuit of completeness is also reflected in the use of even numbers. The number of flowers and birds are two, four or six, and there has never been one, three or five such singular numbers.

Craftsmen pursue integrity and beauty in modeling out of simple thoughts, feelings and aesthetic needs. For example, when expressing women, it is extremely elegant and beautiful; When describing military commanders, boldly exaggerate and highlight the masculine beauty of men.

In order to achieve the perfect shape, they can even unify the flowers and plants with different solar terms, theme contents with different attributes, things in the sky, on the ground, reality and imagination in one work, forming a harmonious and beautiful picture, giving people endless aftertaste and meaningful charm. The organic combination of wholeness and beauty has reached a harmonious and unified aesthetic realm.
