Yuting Chang

Yuting Chang is a Taiwanese designer and ceramic artist whose practice moves between industrial design, user interfaces and graphic work, with an obsession for the details that separate a sketch from a finished object. Trained at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she took an MFA in Design for Emerging Technologies, she treats material processes as a way of questioning how familiar objects are made.

Her Plycelain tableware turns Chinese blue-and-white porcelain inside out: the decoration is built into the clay through up to 29 layers of slip-cast porcelain in alternating hues, so the pattern surfaces only on trimmed edges and rims. The work earned Homeware Design of the Year at the Dezeen Awards 2020 and a Gold at the A’ Design Awards, and has been shown at WantedDesign in Brooklyn and Sight Unseen Offsite in New York.
