Jacob Chan

Using a combination of wheel-thrown and figurative vessels, Jacob creates bodies of work that are heavily influenced by his cultural background and heritage. Fired in his soda gas kiln, his pieces display a wide range of deep colours and rich surface textures. Jacob transforms London’s construction clay using the kilns he built himself. The introduction of this waste material has brought new and distinctive surface finishes to his work, particularly through the unpredictable nature of soda firing. Within the figurative elements of his work, he incorporates pieces of natural slate and broken pottery collected from Britain’s coastlines and mountain ranges. These materials symbolise his Western heritage and express his cultural journey in a physical and creative form.
