memory, place & belonging

My work speaks to the in-between, shaped by my experiences as an Aotearoa-born Chinese. Through clay, I explore how place, memory, and loss leave their mark. Each piece speaks through layered surfaces that hold multiple identities and shifting forms, echoing memory and lived experience. My work reflects a sense of loss - of belonging, of continuity, of what cannot be fully recovered. What is taken away is as present as what remains. It holds the tension between fragility and resilience, and gestures toward what is still becoming.
