About the Maker

Wu Jingwen

Chinese Ceramic Artist

 

Transitioning from game concept art to ceramics, Wu Jingwen found her true voice in the tactile and imperfect world of clay. Her monumental vessels—marked by earthy textures and a coal-like black finish achieved through iron oxide reduction—are primal yet contemporary.

 

Jingwen’s inspirations range from ancient Yellow River pottery to the vibrant ghost markets of Jingdezhen. Her work reflects a reverence for traditional techniques, harmonizing with the environment and embracing the unpredictability of firing. Each vessel carries the spirit of timelessness and modernity, inviting viewers to experience the essence of clay as a living material.
