2014 Invited International Artist

Yixin Lin 林逸心

Yixin Lin is a MA Designer and Maker graduate from Camberwell College of Arts, University of Arts London, focusing on ceramic art. Lin is based out of Jingdezhen, China's ancient "porcelain capital."

Her focus is in study the relationship between people’s emotion with a ceramic object, and the Japanese aesthetic Wabi-Sabi, the beauty of nature, impermanence and imperfection. As her background is Fine Art, her ceramic pieces tend to be more conceptual. Previous work involves installation, oil painting, and book design.

Her most recent practice is driven by a fascination with the clay's natural process, combined with the artist's own influence. She creates organic shapes which are full of attractive details, reminding people of something from nature – seed pods, nuts, flowers, sea shells.
