Concept of artwork 設計理念:
From the surface peering in, there is light at the end of the tunnel as we toil through these difficult times. While hopeful, the single perspective also blinds us to the beauty that disruption and change have brought. Thankfully, all it takes is a step back for us to enjoy the wondrous shifting landscapes around us. Chi . Jing presents an examination of the exigencies of the times we live in while imagining and considering possible futures.

Chi . Jing is a series of 2 porcelain vessels that can be hung on the wall, one 32.5x32.5x14 cm and the other 24x24x17 cm. The slip-cast works reflect a sense of patience, practice, and artistry in adapting slip-casting, typically seen as a mass manufacturing process in ceramics, to create unique pieces that underscore the enduring relevance of traditional techniques and processes as well as impeccable craftsmanship. Through a focus on exploring non-functional forms, the work presents an examination of the exigencies of the times we live in, while imagining and considering possible futures. The constant fascination with colored slip, commonly used as a decorative feature in the process of slip-casting, and with the manifold layers of craftsmanship hidden within the intricate, time-consuming process of slip-casting, has come to predominate my studio practice. Topographical lines demarcate each layer of exposed slip in the works, with the finished organic forms leading the viewer from one subtle element of interest - such as the gradations of color - to another, like how a dip in the form might correspond to a change in the flow of slip and color.
