About the artwork

Cai Lei's sculptures intend to capture the very essence of human body and human condition by creating hyperrealistic works that both stun and amaze their viewers. Freed from all lies and idealization, the artist reflects on the facts of existence often avoided: the passing of time, our ephemeral condition, and its consequences. His realistic reproduction of the body translates a desire to preach for truth and a refusal to lie through idealistic sculptures.
