Pic Story: Provincial Inheritor of Blue-and-White Porcelain Making
April 30, 2023Cai Wenjuan works on a porcelain piece at a blue-and-white porcelain production base in Jingdezhen, east China's Jiangxi Province, April 19, 2023. Known as "porcelain capital," Jingdezhen in east China is famous for ceramic-making. The blue-and-white porcelain is a representative pattern of Chinese ceramics known to overseas art collectors. Born into a family of blue-and-white porcelain makers, Cai Wenjuan, a Jingdezhen native chose to carry on the family craft of porcelain painting. As a provincial inheritor of the blue-and-white porcelain making, Cai endeavors to pass on the craft by integrating the ancient charm of blue-and-white porcelain with modern aesthetics. Cai launched her own brand to promote new painting designs. "Ceramics embrace change. I'm here to inherit the tradition in an innovative way, and then create my own works," she said.
