Huang Yong Ping Ultrawolvesunderthefullmoon Ressort is the name of the recently commissioned and acquired sculpture by chinese french artist huang yong ping for the queensland art gallery of modern art (qagoma). the gigantic aluminum snake skeleton spirals over 53 meters (173.88 ft). huang was born in xiamen in southern china in 1954. In huang’s works since 1989, chinese symbols and mythology are often intertwined with those of the west, overlaid with references to the locality where the work is shown. this approach is clearly evident in ressort, which was commissioned for apt7 and the collection. Symbolically linking sky and water, ‘ressort’ (a french word meaning ‘spring’, but also ‘resilience’ and ‘energy’) epitomises huang yong ping’s ability to offer an open interpretation while making deep connections to human experience and belief. Designed and installed in 2012 for the queensland art gallery in australia, this magnificent structure features a snake skeleton made of silver vertebrae, undulating in a curved manner from the ceiling to the floor.
