These colorful mangafied vases are the result of a brilliant artistic fusion between traditional Chinese art and the ever popular manga-style techno-pop art. The contemporary creations by Kamloops, British Columbia-based ceramicist and artist Brendan Lee Satish Tang are known as Manga Ormolu.

Sharing a similar ideal as Brian Jungen’s native art sculptures, the Manga Ormolu series combines culture rich artistry with modern pop to convey the artist’s message.

Part traditional Chinese vessel, part manga-inspired mecha, these colorful pieces of pottery are sure to liven up any mantle. (io9)
