YVONNE WENG (YI-HSIANG, WENG)

翁宜襄的創作背景多元,為作品帶來內斂的深度與細膩感。

大學主修哲學與英國文學,自幼深受古典與爵士音樂薰陶,亦曾駐唱爵士樂團、擔任台語搖滾樂團主唱。這些橫跨哲學、音樂與語言的生命經驗,成為她陶藝創作中的重要底蘊。



Yvonne Weng’s creative journey is shaped by a rich and varied background that informs the depth and subtlety of her work.

Holding degrees in philosophy and English literature, along with earlier studies in classical music, she brings a thoughtful and lyrical sensibility to her ceramics. Having grown up surrounded by art and music, she carries a deep appreciation for artistic expression in many forms.

Her experience as the lead singer of a Taiwanese dialect shoegaze/dream-pop band, creating original music rooted in authentic Taiwanese elements, along with early influences from jazz, adds layers of rhythm and atmosphere that resonate throughout her pieces.

ABOUT HER WORKS

翁宜襄的器皿展現了她對藝術、音樂與內在世界的持續探索,在實用與感性之間尋得平衡。她的作品並非全然源於設計,而是在創作與沉思中自然而然地浮現。

自2013年起開始從事陶藝創作,從器物中可以看出她多年來的用心與琢磨。

她的電窯作品貼近人心,經常成為用餐時順手選用的器物。富有生命力的柴燒作品則透過活用素材、柴火與窯內氣流,變化出獨特的釉色與質感。無論輕巧或厚實,都講求握感平衡、貼合手形,提把位置經過觀察和考量,避免多餘陶土造成重量不均。這份對細部的體貼,讓作品能自然融入日常生活。      



Yvonne Weng’s ceramics rest between function and sensuality, reflecting her ongoing exploration of the boundless realms of art, music, and contemplation. Not solely shaped by design, her creations emerge organically, embodying craftsmanship, mindful inquiry, and a presence that is subtle yet certain.

Since 2013, she has nurtured her voice through persistant creative practice, crafting works that carry a quiet presence and gentle authenticity. This is especially evident in her tableware, refined over the years for comfort and ease in everyday use.

Her electric-kiln-fired pieces reveal soft, harmonious tones, yet invite repeated use in daily life. Her wood-fired works present layered surfaces with subtle variations in color and texture that speak to their elemental origins and unique vitality, shaped by her thoughtful selection of materials combined with the interplay of wood, fire, and kiln atmosphere. Whether lighter or more solid in feel, each object finds its own balance when held, never weighed down by excess clay, with handles placed thoughtfully for natural ease.
