In the summer of 2024, Jiayi traveled to Jingdezhen, China, for ethnographic data collection for her PhD thesis work. During the three months there, She also collaborated with a unique species to create our new insect-ceramic series, titled Subterranean Creatures and Monuments (地下生物与纪念碑 ).

We have never worked with this insect before, and we are very surprised and pleased with the results.

Here’s a sneak peek of some selected works-
