We are delighted to announce that local ceramicist Jacob Chan will be ‘In the Window’ for January 2025 to celebrate Lunar New Year.
Jacobs work is heavily based around his cultural background and heritage. Being half Chinese and half English Jacobs ceramics take inspiration from traditional Chinese shapes and forms, whilst the surfaces are heavily decorated in slips and oxides that contain other raw materials such as sand, slate and broken pottery collected from around the coastlines and mountain ranges of Britain. He uses these materials to represent his Western culture and my cultural journey through my creativity.
Bluecoat Display Centre has been awarded funding by the Ulrike Michal Foundation for the Arts to enable this window installation.
Don’t miss the Meet the Maker event with Jacob Chan on Friday 31 January. Find out more here.
Event Date: Wednesday 1st January 2025 - Friday 31st January 2025
