I am a New York-based Taiwanese American maker, educator, and musician. I work in the intersection of ceramics, sound, and history. Fascinated by the physics of sound and the unique acoustics of clay, I combine handbuilding and wheel throwing techniques to create interactive sound sculptures and musical instruments inspired by those made in ancient cultures.

 

Instead of replicating historical objects, I reinterpret them through a contemporary lens. By blending tradition with innovation to create objects that feel both familiar and surprising, I hope to encourage an exploration of how sound and material culture have shaped human history.

​

From my background teaching music in public schools, hands-on participation has always been important to me. I view my work as complete when they are activated through live performances and discovery sessions where the audience is invited to touch, feel, and play. I want to bridge the gap between the creator and the observer, the past and the present, and transforming historical knowledge into a sensory experience. I also hope that my work can illuminate lesser-known ancient traditions worldwide and spark curiosity about the cultural significance of sound and ceramics.
