Chris was born in the Year of the Pig, so this could almost be considered a self-portrait… a cheeky smile, a little bit chubby and very relaxed. In Chinese culture, the peach tree symbolises longevity, and the bamboo is a nod to virtue and integrity. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Pig are extremely nice, good-mannered and tasteful.
This series of 12 original prints is the latest in Chris Chun’s ongoing Chinese Zodiac Collection. It is inspired by various handicraft techniques of China, particularly the well-known Chinese blue and white ceramics (qinghua), which defines the elegant colour palette used here. Each zodiac animal is imbued with layers of meaning and hidden detail, combining traditional Asian symbolism with contemporary Western sensibilities to bring good fortune, health and happiness to viewers.
This print makes a gorgeous and unique gift idea for those born this year and in other Pig years - 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019.
