Transitional space : Exhibition view, SCA Gallery  [Image no. 9937]

Artist statement: "The idea of 'transitional space' grew out of thinking about internal and external space, one of the fundamental characteristics of ceramics arising from the vessel form. Traditional space or 'in-between' space is the connection between the inner and outer space, a point at which things are changing from one position to another. I have been working with the notion of 'transitional space' since 2002.During my Bachelor Degree in Taiwan I also worked with wood and metal, but I chose to work with clay because of the seductive nature of the material, and because I found that a close involvement with a specific material brings a set of limitations that are stimulating to work with and I appreciate the limitations of clay. I believe every material has its own language. For me this language of clay always has a more beautiful and stronger persuasion than my explanation in words.".Copyright of the artist.
