Let the beauty we love be what we do.

— Rumi

Qian Liu specialises in throwing forms in stoneware and porcelain. Qian was previously apprenticed to Tom Knowles Jackson ( UK) and Steve Sheridan ( Australia), both of which specialise in throwing functional ware.

The aspiration behind Qian’s pottery is to create well considered functional wares that poise between prose and poetry, work situated in the containment of utility ( prose) yet able to offer beyond its functional realm ( poetry).
