Yunjie Huang (artist name as FengYe) is an illustrator, designer and ceramic artist from China, currently based in London.
After completing her undergraduate studies in industrial design, Yunjie began her Master's course in illustration at Camberwell College of Arts. Her projects are mainly related to feminism, inequality and the power structure of society. She tries to explore a way of self-empowerment in personal life experience by researching the history before patriarchy replaced matriarchy.
From the artefacts of goddess-worshiping cultures in Neolithic and Bronze Age Europe, she found her interest in ceramics because pottery was a ritual process in those cultures. She uses different clay to rebuild the new symbols of the goddess. Porcelain is one of her favorites due to its plasticity and ability to build thin and tiny details. During the creation, she resonated with the spirit of ancient partnership wisdom and felt empowered. She hopes to reconstruct the viewer’s sense of the female body and the life-creating power within it as sacred.
