Tsoi Sze Wing
Cwing is an illustrator and ceramicist.
The creative themes come from personal experiences and life moments.
Over the past few years, she has been using illustration as a medium of expression.
In recent years, she came into contact with clay during college, trying to get out of the flat space, and discovered that clay can be a medium for her to share things and feelings. Clay is the simplest, most straightforward, and most powerful way to carry emotions while retaining memories. For her, ceramic art creation involves using only her hands to feel and explore based on primitive intuition, just like the exploration in life, expressing her inner will with the shapes she moulds. She hopes that through her works, people can consciously enjoy these ordinary moments. Slow down at the right time to feel the things around you and appreciate the simple communication between people and objects. Gradually it became her way of connecting with the world.

The experience of tidying up my room brought back some forgotten memories. Through the systematic recording and organising process of quasi-archaeology, I found the old objects in my room, unearthed those forgotten memories, and reconnected with the old objects. I fuse memory with plaster, using soda powder to write memory into each piece, transforming it into a physical memory bank to understand and reflect on my memories and history.
整理房間的經歷讓我找回一些被遺忘的記憶。 以考古有系統的紀錄及整理過程，找出我房間 的舊物，挖掘出那些被我遺忘的記憶，重新與 舊物對話。我將記憶與石膏融為一體，在每件 作品中用梳打粉編寫記憶，將其轉化為實質的 記憶庫，了解及反思我過去的記憶和歷史。

How does clay capture the emotion of powerlessness? My sense of powerlessness reached a critical point, and I was about to collapse, but there seemed to be no way to stop it.

Finding myself in the process of reorganising into a new form through throwing, breaking, and retaining cracks, to express acceptance of the impermanence of life, embracing growth scars, and choosing how to face the most important thing.

From regret to accept coexistence with it, it takes a while, and the duration varies for each person. Some can move on, while others become addicted. I hope the picture book can help people assess their current state, provide a healing feeling to their souls, and guide them to view regret from a new perspective. Therefore, I painted in an abstract way people’s psychological journey through the five stages of regret, gradually leading the audience to acceptance and facing their regrets.
