Reflecting the journey of Hong Kong immigrants adapting to life in the UK.

Exploring diverse glazes and their chemical properties has been a crucial part of her creative process. Her innovative approach utilizes glaze as the primary material rather than clay, employing glaze-casting techniques to challenge traditional perceptions of glaze's role in ceramics.

Jessica’s practice is process-led and research-based, with a strong emphasis on learning through making. Her work considers the material’s characteristics in relation to the design. She continues to explore themes of belonging, inclusive society, and the relationships between landscape, people, and materiality.
