“MadeIn Curved Vase” draws from the firing method of ancient ceramics. By bending the neck of the classic shape of Chinese ceramics by ninety degrees, the series perfectly presents the difficult form, creating a new shape of ware. As a result, the use value of these items are completely removed, and XU ZHEN® uses this to present a “probable history” parallel to the generally recognized Chinese history.
