Mei Xiaoshan: Breathing life into ceramic heritage

Mei Xiaoshan, a leading Foshan ceramic artist and third-generation heritage bearer, finds in ceramics the power to "give life to lifeless clay" and create enduring works of art. Mei's style, evolving from realism to expressive (sometimes defiantly cute) forms, reflects her own spirit. She champions artistic freedom—eschewing fixed symbols, embracing material crossovers (ceramic/glass), and aiming to reach every household.
