I’m really excited to finally share a new body of work I’ve been working on over the past couple of months 💙🤍
It marks a new experimental direction for me. I’ve been working exclusively in porcelain, thinking a lot about blue and white ceramics, but approaching that history without hand-painted decoration. Instead, I’ve been exploring glaze chemistry, material interaction, and the unpredictability of the firing process.
These pieces move away from traditional vessel forms and lean more toward abstraction and sculptural presence. The forms are minimal and softly contoured, a bit larger than my usual work, so the surface can really take the lead. The blues, tonal shifts, and painterly effects you see are shaped through firing rather than direct control.
Blue and white ceramics have travelled across centuries and continents through trade, migration, appropriation, and adaptation, to the point where their origins are often blurred. That history feels deeply connected to my own process of retracing my roots, where family stories and inheritances are fragmented and shaped by movement over time.
Rather than relying on fixed ornament or symbolism, I’ve been leaning into chance. Letting glaze chemistry and kiln conditions guide the surface means not fully knowing the outcome, and that uncertainty feels important. The surface becomes a site of discovery, just like diasporic journeys that are shaped by risk, adaptation, and what’s revealed along the way.
The works will be shown in an upcoming trio group exhibition along with and at .au. Curated by .voterakis and .
