A Quest for Flowers

Ceramics
The artwork A Quest for Flowers comprises four, floral-themed ceramic pieces that draw inspiration from seasonal imagery to depict nature. The perspective of this artwork changes following each ceramic flower, revealing variegated colours, moods and spaces. Through the ancient ceramic works including the Celadon jar with architectures and figurines, Sancai dish with goose, Susancai covered box in the form of pomegranate and the Famille rose brush holder exhibited in the CUHK Art Museum, Gu Yue experienced the awe and admiration for nature, creative dexterity, sanguine and self-amusing attitude towards life demonstrated by former ceramic artists. He emphasises the sense of space in his ceramic art, observing the relationship between objects and colours from a three-dimensional perspective. By contemplating things through the medium of ceramics, Gu Yue is able to appreciate the soul-nurturing artistry, painting, mood and inexhaustible vitality of traditional ceramic art. He, in turn, expresses his understanding of the myriad things in nature and the traditional ceramic aesthetics through his personalised creations.
