Simon Meng brings together Huang Yulong's distinctive sculptural language and the intricate tattoo artistry of YZ.

The masked figure stands confidently in contemporary streetwear, its exposed copper-toned body covered with elaborate dragon tattoos. A particularly striking dragon stretches across the back, its finely engraved scales and swirling forms contrasting with the dark metallic finish of the clothing.

The collaboration explores the relationship between traditional Chinese iconography, tattoo culture and contemporary urban identity. Through the contrast of intricate ornamentation and everyday streetwear, the sculpture reflects themes of personal expression, cultural heritage and masculinity.

A unique work combining Huang Yulong's sculptural vision with YZ's tattoo artistry.
