The personal profile of celadon master Huang Can is as follows:

1、 Basic Information

Name: Huang Can

Date of birth: 1989

Native place: Longquan, Zhejiang

Occupation: Craft Artist, Celadon Maker and Designer

2、 Growth background and mentorship

Growing up in a family engaged in celadon production since childhood, my mother's family had almost all worked in state-owned porcelain factories and had a deep affection and understanding of celadon.

In 2009, I studied celadon production and design under the guidance of Chinese ceramic art master Chen Aiming.

3、 Career and Achievements

After 5 years of study, I founded my own studio in 2014, focusing on the creation of celadon.

The work is known for its cleanliness and understatement, with a unique approach to glaze color treatment. It likes to mix and match green glaze with gray glaze, breaking the traditional single color glaze limitation of Longquan celadon and forming a unique artistic style.

Has won numerous domestic and international awards, including the Gold Award in the 3rd Zhejiang Province Celadon Inheritance and Innovation Design Competition, the Gold Award in the 1st Asia Pacific Traditional Handicraft Expo, and the Gold Award in the China (Zhejiang) Arts and Crafts Boutique Expo.

The works have been collected by multiple museums, such as Zhejiang Provincial Museum, Jiangsu Gongmei Art Boutique Museum, Longquan Celadon Museum, etc.

4、 Representative works and styles

Representative works include "Spinning Jar", "Green Rain", "Fate", "Memories of Autumn Water", "Silent Qinglian", "Seeking Autumn", etc.

The style of the work is unique, with a combination of green and yellow glaze treatment, creating an endless cycle of vitality. The clever layout brings a visual impact to people, as well as a natural sense of change and the continuity of time and space.

In the work, one can inadvertently see the traces of hand drawn blanks, which are the patterns left by fingers on the porcelain clay, as well as the warmth of the heart, infused with Huang Can's thoughts and emotions, fixed by the porcelain and presented to the world.

5、 Creative concept and insights

Huang Can believes that making porcelain is like being a person, one should be quiet and not impetuous. He cherishes the craftsmanship in the porcelain body and longs for the warmth of the handmade product. Every time a handmade object undergoes the Nirvana of fire and appears before the eyes in the form of a "tool" like a deity, all perseverance is worth it.

He sticks to his original intention and regards the art as his lifelong mission. As he watched the soil playing with him in his hands and presenting it in the form he had imagined, the ripples in his heart were sweeter than the honey he had eaten in childhood.

In summary, Huang Can is a talented master of celadon, and his works and style are highly recognized and praised both inside and outside the industry. His creative philosophy and insights have also provided us with valuable inspiration and reference.
