In Türkiye, porcelain is expensive. In Europe, it's highly technical and difficult to master. But in Jingdezhen? It's everywhere, on the streets, in daily life, and woven into the ordinary.
That contrast is what draws Omit Tokgoz here.
Her work with porcelain is experimental, focusing on fragility and translucency, the very soul of the material. And its birthplace is right here in Jingdezhen.
She first came to the city in 2004 for a short visit. Now, she's back for a two-month residency, ready to bring her ideas from Türkiye and give them life in the home of porcelain.
Watch the video to find out why this city and this material continue to call her back.
