Ceramic ready-made
Dimensions of ceramics are listed at the end of the page.
This project examines Taiwan’s ceramic industry before the 1990s through the overlooked support structures embedded within mass-produced ceramic objects. In the production of animal ceramics with slender limbs or delicate protrusions—such as birds, fish, deer, or horses—fragility often limited the possibility of mass production. To address this, prototype makers developed support structures that gradually took on diverse forms resembling tree trunks, foliage, waves, or even unidentifiable shapes.
By collecting and recontextualizing these structures, the project shifts attention toward the inventive role of prototype makers and the hidden negotiations between industrial production, material limitation, and formal invention. The support object becomes not merely a functional appendage, but a residual archive of manufacturing histories and alternative sculptural languages.
The extended series The Alps(2023-2025) further transforms these supports into speculative landscapes, exploring the intersections of industrial design, geological imagination, and material memory.
