About Me
Hey there! My name is Wee Shiang Tay (you can also call me Shiang) and I am a Malaysian ceramic artist currently based in Tarntanya (Adelaide). Also, I am a 2024 Ceramic Associate at the JamFactory.
I like creating functional and figurative sculptures using a combination of both hand-building and wheel thrown methods! My work takes inspiration from gachapon (Japanese capsule toys), action figurines, nature and animals.
