Jirawong Wongtrangan
จิระวงษ์ วงษ์ตระหง่าน
Since 2008 Jirawong Wongtrangan, Ceramic Artist from Chiang Mai has been creating ceramic art. Inspired by nature, colours of local clay and surroundings, I create functional ceramics in organic forms in earth tone glazes. People can connect with my work through using it. In the process of clay preparation, creation, glazing and firing, it has always fascinated me. I express my process of thoughts and passion through clay. Actively, I connect with local and international artists in Asia as well as with artists in residency at my studio near the heart of Chiang Mai old city. I have a studio called lnClay Studio where I work and welcome ceramic enthusiasts. In my personal view, a piece of holistic ceramic art comes from a creator who wants to make it and expresses the thoughts by making it.
