▍Using Slip and Fabric Textures
Ceramic artist Chia Feng Chen was born in 1970. He began working at the Yingge Ceramics Museum in 2000, where he discovered and started his journey in ceramic art. His work combines the technique of using fabric textures: "My mother was a tailor, so there were always leftover fabrics at home. I figured out how to incorporate these fabrics into my creations. You can see a lot of fabric textures in my work, which is a reflection of my childhood memories with my mom."
The fascinating aspect of fabric is the fiber texture on its surface. After applying slip and then stretching and adjusting it, this becomes his signature style, adding an element of surprise to his creations.
