TEA CLAY VASE
2022tea clay
This project consists of 12 tea-clay vases and 12 porcelain flowers. Tea Clay is a bio-based material made of wasted tea leaves created by Jiwei Zhou.
The tea-clay vase can quickly bio-degrade, but the porcelain flower can never. By reconfiguring the notion of flower and vase, Miao intended to question our values. Why does one always want vases that last forever and flowers that die quickly? Can we reimagine alternatives?
