Mae Chan 陳潔婷
Hong Kong
Mae Chan (b.1991) graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in Textiles. Her practice is a multi-disciplinary fusion of textiles, sculpture and craft.
Rooted in the poetic, narrative, and artisanal traditions, Chan's mixed-media sculptures reframe objects within different contexts of intimacy, boundary, and judgment. Playing with the semiotics of form and touch, she dissects subtle emotional shifts, leveraging the human form as a foundational metaphor.
Chan received the 'Developing Your Creative Practice' Grant from Arts Council England. She was a finalist nominee for the 2021 Ingram Prize. Her work has been exhibited in Thrown (UK), London Craft Week (UK), Visual Arts Scotland (UK), Unit 1 Gallery | Workshop (UK), Young Space Views (UK), Kühlhaus (Germany), Søndre Green (Norway) and HART(HK).
