The exhibition Gallery at Hua Shan Din by Cosmo Creation presents contemporary ceramic arts by Yu-Ying Huang, an acclaimed ceramic artist whose distinct works received global recognition.

The black pattern of rotating squares is smoked fired onto the white body to create a dynamic and rotating visual effect.

You will see her impressions of various ocean elements, such as coral reefs, shellfish, sea urchins, and a school of fish swimming in the glittering water under the reflection of sunlight.
