Lin Hung-Hsin's piece "Australian Lobster" showcases a remarkable level of sculptural finesse through its intricate metalwork. Created in 1900, the sculpture captures the lobster’s organic form with meticulous detail, from the spiny textures to the armored back, reflecting the lustrous sheen of metal. The work embodies the juxtaposition and harmony between nature and industrialism, as the cold metal accentuates the liveliness of the subject. Lin endows this animal figure with a serene dynamism, inviting viewers into the depths and mysteries of the ocean, experiencing the awe of life’s power.
