Congcong
Congcong is a white porcelain sculpture centered around the traditional form of the teapot. The work explores the relationship between the fluidity of water and the containment of vessels. In Eastern philosophy, water is considered formless, able to adapt to any container—symbolizing softness yet the capacity to embrace all things. Traditionally, the teapot is a vessel that holds water, but here, the artist reverses this logic: it is water that gives shape to the pot. The flowing body of water becomes the formal basis for the sculpture, and each porcelain “pot” emerges not from utility, but from a moment when water solidifies into form. The resulting forms are abstract, dynamic, and organic, presenting white porcelain bodies shaped by the essence of water itself. The pure and ethereal quality of porcelain lends the static objects a hidden sense of motion—as if the gentle murmur of flowing water (Congcong) still echoes within the body of the pot. This work invites viewers to reflect on the shifting boundary between form and formlessness, function and concept.
