The Jade Eye Plates

This series is a collection of irregularly shaped plates, each uniquely hand-built with dark stoneware clay. Drawing inspiration from my childhood love of manga and my personal experiences, the series features messages, lyrics, and thoughts that have stayed with me over time. 

The plates are intentionally imperfect and each carries its own message, combining elements of art and function. To complement the organic feel of the plates, I introduced a jade green colour glaze inspired by traditional Chinese pottery, as well as my signature white and cobalt blue hues. 

The juxtaposition of the dark clay and the hand-drawn, rustic aesthetic gives the series a warm and approachable quality, inviting users to appreciate the unique message in each plate and resonate with them on a personal level.
