Rooted in Hong Kong and currently based in London, Ray Ng (b.1995) discovered clay work in 2025 and has been drawn into the possibility of forms and silhouette made with clay and been pushing the boundary of how vessels should look like.
Ray’s practice draws from industrial process pipings and rusty textures as symbols of human intervention, colliding them with biophilic silhouettes inspired by natural growth and movement. Mainly through handbuilding method coiling to form streamlined bodies and branching pipe-like extensions, Ray deconstructs conventional vessel forms and investigate new relationships between volume and void; balance and instability; and movement and stillness, to mimic the organic growth and the emotional expression. Ray also investigates how rusty texture can become aesthetic for our daily objects.
