Polish the city twice a day.


Having become world-renowned for his stainless steel sculptures of “scholars' rocks,” Zhan Wang, a respected artist in China, painstakingly creates his pieces of art by bending, heating and molding sections of stainless steel plates across the cloud-like topography of each rock. The graceful, craggy boulders can be found in several provinces around China that seem to have been sculpted by natural forces.

The artist created a topographical San Francisco cityscape, using steel rocks, mirrored surfaces, silverware, and stainless steel pots and pans.
