Yanze works solely in porcelain. Most of her works are slab-built sculptures finished with celadon glazes. While Yanze draws on traditional Chinese materials and glazes, she transcends tradition to make modern, abstract or conceptual works. More recently she has also been investigating smoke firing.
'Teapots on parade' (pictured, left) is a recent work, which won a Merit Award at the Taiwan First International Ceramics Competition.
