Description

"Jerusalem Families" is a four-piece porcelain series, with a number assigned to each piece. It was created as part of the "Consuming Virus" project. They shared characteristics including a human-like face in a geometrical shape, hollow-black eyes, a white body, and a bloody mouth. The artist appears to anthropomorphize and commercialize the virus. (Zhuocheng Jiang '26)
