arved from a single piece of premium Australian jade, this powerful sculpture titled "Expanding Frontiers" (《拓疆》) portrays the legendary figure of Genghis Khan, whose spirit of ambition and resilience mirrors the very nature of jade itself—unyielding, enduring, and deeply rooted in the earth.
The rough mountain silhouette of the jade slab provides a dramatic backdrop, as if torn from the pages of history itself. Genghis Khan’s face is carved with dynamic energy—his windswept hair and piercing gaze driving a cavalry charge that thunders across the surface of the stone. The composition reflects not only the power of Mongol expansion, but the emotional force behind leadership, unity, and bold vision.
Masterfully created by Ou Yang Hui, an artist celebrated for merging narrative form with natural jade texture, this work is a testament to how Australian jade is finding new life in Chinese art traditions. Just as Genghis Khan expanded his empire, so too does this artwork symbolize the cultural journey of Australian jade—crossing borders and carving its place in the heart of Chinese craftsmanship.
Estimated price for this piece by Ouyang Hui AUD$2,200 (RMB￥10,000)
