Artist Statement
I am the product of growing up in a third culture, having immigrated to Canada from Hong Kong at a young age, then to the United States in my formative adult years.
I am trained as a hospital pharmacist, self-taught as a ceramicist, a mother. My struggle to find myself within shifting cultural and self-identities has evolved into an opportunity to redefine connectedness and to seek authenticity.
My work centers on discovery and adaptation, embracing movement and spontaneity. Each piece is a quiet reflection of resilience, vulnerability, curiosity, and the art of letting go.
