Yin and Yang by Stephy Fung

Yin and Yang is all about balance in energy. The dualism of the Yin and Yang represents in life that nothing is purely good and nothing is purely bad. The piece evokes a story about how two people with different energy and background can still find a way to love each other. The main characters represent Yin and Yang, both with opposite qualities yet at the same time complement each other. The messaging behind this piece for me is the fact that inclusion means acceptance of everyone's differences. Nobody is the same and it's important that we shine light on those voices that are not represented within the space. Especially being a ethnic minority and a female in the NFT space, I'm here to tell my story through my art in order to inspire others to do the same.

In Chinese culture, the play on words and homophones are important as Chinese people believe in good fortune and luck. I've decided on 28 editions because 28 (yih baat) in Cantonese sounds like easy prosper 易發 (yih faat). It is another reason why the pieces are priced at $888 (baat baat baat) because in Chinese culture 8 is the luckiest number and sounds close to 發 (faat) short for 發財 (faat choi) which means to make fortune. And lastly, today (1st February 2022) is Chinese New Year - Year of the Tiger, may I wish everyone a prosperous year and hope everyone stays healthy. 新年快樂, 身体健康!
