"Tsang’s work integrates the themes of human beings vs. objects. Sometimes he anthropomorphizes these objects, giving them human attributes— like in the example of the coffee cups. In other cases, the figures he develops are decidedly human, but distinct nonetheless. He is particularly adept at sculpting expressive, childlike faces— sometimes cheerful, at other times ominous, especially when used in depictions of child soldiers or with other socio-political themes. On the one hand, he can make lovers out of coffee. On the other, he can turn transform a grenade into a pile of human organs. Johnson Tsang’s work has many faces— usually turned out to the world in an unexpectedly jarring way." via Decompoz
