"People come into this world naked and I consider naked bodies to be people's original, authentic look. So I feel the real existence of people through their naked bodies." - Ren Hang

" The wildness of the cacti is the perfect contrast to the curated lines of the room itself. All of that greenery – filling a room with nature is the perfect antidote to living in an urban environment. "

Anna Barlow

A ceramics artist 

“The beauty of food left to melt and ooze holds a fascination for me.

 It is something that is usually over looked and temporary 

but this can be captured and frozen in time with clay and glaze.

 I have focused on ice cream as

 it is such a momentary and yet memorable treat 

that most of us have experienced

 and therefore can evoke memories of sensations and tastes,

 as well as prompt a fantasy of desired indulgences. 

I am firstly inspired by the materials I use.

 I find that clay, porcelain and glaze 

have so many wonderful possibilities 

and often translate well to represent food.” 

"I love the idea that ice-cream only lasts for seconds but once its fired, 

ceramic is permanent unless you break it."

“With ice-cream,

 the best time is just before you eat it,

 but by the end of it

 you’re all ‘oh gosh, I don’t need the rest'. 

Consumerism is momentary, 

but also fun.”

“I find it fascinating how some people dislike my sculptures,

 usually because they don’t prize food in their own lives,” she says.

 "Children in particular tend to understand it more, which makes sense.”

The Body-seat/2014

"I find the beauty of this product being 

when the simple form

 turns into various complicated configurations 

as a result of human interaction" 

My designs border on real and imagination. 

They usually answer the question What If? 

What if we could sit as we like? 

What if every object we own could be decomposable?

 What if we could create our own objects? 

I like people to be able to have a conversation with my designs, 

whether it be through interaction or the association that it brings.

 I love soft furniture 

and everything to do with colour, patterns and textures.
