Brief description
Tea set, 'Qiqi and Keke', Lin Jing, Beijing, 2000.
Gallery label
(2009)
Lin Jing trained as a fine artist, but is now finding commercial success with her ceramic wares. This tea set is sold in exclusive boutiques in Shanghai. When creating the forms, Lin Jing considered the intimate relationship between the water and its container. She later said, 'I was imagining myself as the tea flowing inside the pot.'
