入選 2015第8屆京畿世界陶瓷雙年展 國際競賽展

The 8th Gyeonggi International ceramic Biennale, Icheon, South Korea.

WEN HSI CHEN     EU 0694
The 8th Gyeonggi International ceramic Biennale, Icheon, South Korea.

The exhibition:  from the April 24 2015 to May 31 2015

The identity 

Porcelain 1260 degrees 
32 x 32 x 3 cm 

The identity represents complex layers in relation to social and gender contexts. My homeland, Taiwan, is at the edge of the developed world, and is situated in colonial and postcolonial status. As a Taiwanese I decided to use rich enamel and gold lustre to emphasize this concept of the edge, to represent my enduring feelings of being an outsider.

Using the tips of my thumbs and forefingers I created tiny and careful actions to represent my own small voice. This meditative movement is between pressing and pushing. Each small individual porcelain fingerprint is a reconstruction of my identity. It represents the relationship between me and the dominant western narrative I find myself in.

This exquisite pink circle piece is inspired by the Taiwanese traditional wedding cake shape. After the wedding ceremony, the couple will share their cakes with each guest to wish for a happy marriage and to bring good luck to others.

My work becomes the permanent KOCEF collection.
