Earthy Language

These works were made by the mud-kneading method commonly used in pottery making, leaving a variety of forms through the whole process. These mud pies, varying in size and shape, and retaining the traces in the process of kneading and squeezing, the artist's handprints as well as the emotional information, have their independent characters and aesthetic connotation.
It is hoped that these works can purely express the nature and style of mud in the white porcelain material, and let the mud pies "speak for themselves."
The works do not present any “images”, but remind us to think about the vast and deep creative potential of “China White” ceramic and the possibilities of its subverting of the inherent concepts.
