How does your work evoke a sense of safety, comfort, belonging, or protection within the home?
“Long associated with domesticity, care, and quiet stability, the Chinese ceramic object is here re-approached as both reference and reclamation—an act of returning to cultural roots through transformation.
In this shift of material, fragility is not lost but reconstituted: the delicacy of porcelain becomes a protective armature. Floral ornament—chrysanthemum and peony motifs—operates not as surface decoration but as generative structure. Through a digital reinterpretation of repoussé, pattern is displaced into depth, where embossing becomes a computational procedure and ornament becomes load-bearing. Within Safe & Sound, the work proposes safety as emerging from domesticity—where tranquility becomes active and shielding.”
