Tell us about your creative practice, and how your work engages with Chinese design, society, environment or culture.

The "eight" series is a tracing and tribute to the traditional Chinese culture by the OPEN OBJECT tableware line. For the first time, the series clearly adopts Chinese traditional elements as the design language, and carries out innovative interpretation with contemporary design concepts.

As a geometric prototype that spans time and space, the octagon has a unique cultural gene in Chinese civilization. Its core meaning is closely connected with the cosmology of the Book of changes, symbolizing the harmony and order of the universe and the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient Chinese philosophers. In the long history, octagon has been widely used in architecture, art and daily life, and has been endowed with rich symbolic meanings such as perfection, stability, auspiciousness and circulation.

OPEN OBJECT seeks a breakthrough in this traditional form, balancing the familiarity of traditional elements with the refinement and abstraction of contemporary design language with a prudent attitude, and strives to achieve the best fit. This series of works is rooted in China's long-standing ceramic cultural tradition, and aims to present contemporary users with practical utensils that not only have cultural connotations, but also conform to modern aesthetic taste. The eight series currently include: food boxes, built water, wine bottles, wine warming containers, wine cups, daily teapots, kung fu teapots, tea cups and other rich and specific product types, covering people's familiar daily life scenes.
