Jerome China breaks chains. That sounds like a metaphor, but it isn't: China, a sculptor of brawny statues in iron and steel, often includes metal links in his work. Allusions to bondage, the middle passage, and resistance to oppression are hard to miss. Yet China is also drawn to the aesthetics of force. He likes applications of practical physics, and he's sensitive to dramatic gestures. A shattered chain looks cool. It means something strong has met something stronger.
