Wen-Hsi Harman: Meditative Clay
- Artists
- Wen-Hsi Harman
“Clay is my mediation. Using clay is a way to restore myself.”
Wen-Hsi Harman (1984- ) is a Taiwanese emerging ceramic artist, based in Bristol.
Her ceramic practice investigates cross-cultural identity through clay. Living away from her homeland gives her a clearer perspective of the culture in which she grew up. These experiences have provided a platform from which she can address cross-cultural questions.
Wen-Hsi creates a series of ceramic works based on handmade sculptural porcelain spoons, fingerprints, bananas, and traditional Chinese characters to explore tension of cross-cultural identity, between the East and the West through clay.
Launch event Fri 9 6-9pm. Artist Talk Sat 10, 1pm. Exhibition open Sat 10 & Sun 11 10am-5pm, and then by arrangement until Feb 28.
