Gerald Mak British

Overview

Gerald Mak, an artist from Hong Kong and now based in London, uses clay to express his changing life experiences and relationships. Mak creates vessels, sculptures, and wall panels, often decorated with carved designs of hands and gestures. The repetitive act of carving clay provides Mak with a tangible way to reflect on his evolving experiences and to process different moments in his life.

 

Mak's work is influenced by the cultures he grew up with, including traditional Chinese scholar items. His "After Kwunyum Vases" are based on the vase carried by Kwunyum, a Buddhist figure of compassion and mercy.

 

 

Mak’s sculptures honours traditional techniques but also reflects his personal journey exploring the connection between culture and the human experience.
