Michelin Lady by Hongxun Jin, Marble, unique piece, 126 cm (h) x 70 cm (w) x 30 cm (d)
Michelin Lady by Hongxun Jin is a striking figurative sculpture carved from solid white marble, presenting a bold yet tender silhouette of a woman shaped by a series of soft, rounded rolls. With elegant simplicity, Hongxun Jin transforms the female form into a study of volume, balance, and presence. The figure’s exaggerated curves recall the familiar image of the Michelin Man, yet the sculpture reclaims this motif to celebrate the quiet dignity and beauty of everyday bodies.
Rendered in smooth, luminous marble, the work merges classical material with contemporary expression. Its polished surface invites touch, while its organic contours evoke warmth and humanity. The figure’s faceless, stylised form allows for universal resonance, an everywoman who carries both humour and grace.
Jin’s Michelin Lady challenges conventional ideals of form and perfection. It invites viewers to reconsider the aesthetics of softness, strength, and self-acceptance. Monumental yet approachable, it stands as a playful yet poignant homage to the human body in all its natural fullness.
