About the artist
Ruth Ju-shih Li 李如詩 is a Taiwanese-Australian artist whose works draws on her cultural and spiritual heritage. She uses time as a material and collaborates with nature and natural elements to create a tension of fragility and impermanence between the staged works and the viewer.
Li has exhibited at venues worldwide including the New Taipei City Yingge Ceramics Museum, Jingdezhen China Ceramics Museum, Tsing Hua University Gallery, Kyoto ceramics Centre, Taoxichuan Museum, National Taiwan University of the Arts and 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art. Li was also invited to present at the 11th UAUSS Symposium (in Turkey) and 16th Australian Ceramics Triennale as well as the 2020 Taiwan Ceramics Biennale and the 2019 Korean International Ceramic Biennale.
Li has been featured in various publications and media including Art Guide Australia, SBS Mandarin, China Daily News, Financial Times (Taiwan), The Journal of Australian Ceramics, and New Ceramics: The European Ceramics Magazine (EU).
Li divides her time between her studio in Sydney, her birth city of Taipei and her ancestral homeland of China in the porcelain city of Jingdezhen.
