This exhibition brings together seven Taiwanese female ceramists who work with clay.
Taiwan is our homeland, which is a lovely place to work with clay.
This exhibition was organized by Wen- Hsi Harman. She is a practice- led research PhD student in ceramics. She deals with the predicament of identity at Bath Spa University in the UK. Her supporting research investigates Taiwanese female ceramists with a particular focus on notions of gender: Taiwan continues to be a patriarchal society. Traditionally, women in Taiwan have always relied on male – dominated social rituals as this defines their identity in life. This exhibition explores how Taiwanese female ceramists survive and balance their life with clay. Additionally the show investigates how they use clay to express their identity.
Thank you for all of the seven Taiwanese female ceramists: Chou Miao Wen, Lin Miao-Fang, Jenny Chen, Lan-Mei Tang, Sophia Deng, Yu Chi Chiu and Wen-Hsi Harman. Especially, thank you to the sponsors Martin Harman, Lucida and Wen Hsi’s family in Taiwan for contributing towards this exhibition. Additionally thank you Professor Moira Vincentelli and Dr. Jo Dahn for helping edit and advise me.
