I went to Cambridge this week to visit several well-known museums and artists' exhibitions. One of these sites was the exhibition 'Making New Words: Li Yuan-chia & Friends.' The exhibition showcased a variety of materials such as wood, clay, metal, paper and fabric, all used as artistic language to express space, time, and life. Correspondingly, points, lines, and surfaces were combined to create these cosmic experience.

Among those pieces, 'Toward the Inside of a Container, 1979' by Shelagh caught my attention. A set of colorful and thin clay, without glaze, was displayed on the ground. Some of them were rolled like bark or pasta, some resembled bowls, and some were striped, appearing many experimental processes. I assume most of them were created by starching clay with paper and firing them in the kiln.
