This workshop aims to explore the intersection of sensory experience and ceramic art through the creation of personalised ceramic bells. Participants will engage with three different types of clay, each offering distinct textures and characteristics. By integrating synesthetic principles, participants will translate their sensory perceptions into tangible forms, creating a deeper connection between design and daily life. This concept aligns with the theme of experiential learning, emphasising how materials can shape our understanding of art and craft.
Tang Tsz Wai Cheri earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from RMIT University / Hong Kong Art School. Her practice encompasses ceramics, sound, synaesthesia, and embodied perception, focusing on the acoustic properties of materials through immersive installations.
By working with ceramics and discarded industrial objects, she transforms them into resonant sound vessels, uncovering the hidden sonic possibilities within mundane. Drawing inspiration from the phenomenon of synaesthesia, her work invites audiences into multisensory environments where touch, sight, and sound merge and interact.
