POTTERY


CHRISTMAS SERIES PROCESS

This is my Christmas series which is my favorite one because its glaze is the ďŹ rst one that I discovered by using the triangle coordinate. In addition, I found out that this glaze has to be ďŹ red twice and the reason is that the color will appear with more variety of crystal. In this case , i want to present the atmosphere of Christmas and also I have been selling it on the internet media which is quite popular. in the future , I will keep researching this glaze to make it my unique product. 1

Socket,Seanome

The idea is inspired by the experience from the society which is full of supply and demand. This desire never ends and forms an inďŹ nite circle. The tentacle of the sea anemone is like the ďŹ nger which wants to grab. From my aspect many people act as greedily as animals. 4

Plug and Socket Series PROCESS

Using ordinary electrical equipment to present the idea, and preserving the clay’s original color, creates a contrast with the white glaze. My plug series addresses the theme of desire which is in turn influenced by supply and demand issues. In fact this series is intended as a self-reflection. The plug means the supply and the socket means the demand. The reason why the color chosen is white is because it represents the pure surface but is rough inside. 6


Finger and Plug Series PROCESS

This series examines the possibility of combination and transformation. I made these works to allow them to be combined and also separated. It can also demonstrate the idea of people and society. The ďŹ ngers are aimed to show the meaning of desire and the urge to grab something. 7

PLUG AND SOCKET

This second series is designed as a money box in which one can save coins and banknotes. In fact the idea is related to the creation theory and aims to express the concept of desire. Such as money and power. The work looks a little whimsical but it aims to create a contrast between the appearance and the meaning.

Robot

PROCESS

This one is my initial work which is not a pottery. It was successful after it was fired.The major problem of making this robot is that its form caused a lot of trouble. I had to prevent it falling apart before the firing process. Therefore, I separated it into two pieces and combined these after it was fired. However, this experience was very important in improving my skills.

PRO C E S S Sketching was the most fascinating subject to me before I learned ceramics. In junior high school I took a lot of time on it however I really enjoy sketching. After I graduated from high school I have still kept practicing and my skill is still improving. In my opinion, sketching is the crucial fundamental of any form of art. In the future I will keep enhancing it .

PRO C E S S Water color used to be my favorite form of art because it involves working with unpredictable elements, the same as when working with ceramics. For instance, the pottery has to be ďŹ red and the watercolor has to be combined with water. These elements are so hard to control that one cannot predict the result with certainty. The best way to tackle this problem is diligence and care. Fortunately, these are characteristics that I possess.
