Created in 2008, Slam Dunk was developed as a basketball-themed public sculpture for the venue of the Beijing Olympic basketball competitions.
The work brings together several successive phases of athletic movement within a single vertical composition. Running, rising, extending, and reaching toward the basket are compressed into a layered structure of overlapping human bodies.
Rather than modelling the athletes through smooth, realistic surfaces, the figures are constructed from faceted forms and perforated stainless steel. The geometric planes emphasize changes in direction, muscular tension, and the explosive force of the jump.
The perforated metal allows light and the surrounding sky to pass through the bodies. This reduces the visual weight of the large-scale structure and gives the figures a shifting appearance as the viewer moves around the sculpture.
The upward accumulation of the figures transforms the act of the slam dunk into a sculptural sequence. The work does not represent one isolated moment, but makes the movement toward height visible as a continuous spatial process.
《灌篮》创作于2008年，是为北京奥运会篮球比赛场馆配套设计的体育主题公共雕塑。
作品将篮球运动中连续发生的多个动作阶段压缩于同一垂直结构之中。冲刺、起跳、身体舒展与向上扣篮等瞬间相互交叠，使不同时间片段共同构成一个不断上升的人体组合。
人物没有采用圆润写实的表面处理，而是由几何切面与穿孔不锈钢结构组成。转折鲜明的形体强化了运动方向、肌肉张力以及腾空瞬间的爆发力。
穿孔金属使光线与天空能够穿过人物身体，减弱大型金属雕塑的厚重感。随着观看位置变化，多个身体之间的重叠、透明与虚实关系也会不断改变。
层层向上累积的人体，将“灌篮”由一个凝固的赛场瞬间转化为空间中的连续过程。作品所表现的不只是最终的扣篮动作，而是身体不断冲向高度的完整运动轨迹。
