Wing on Wo & Co. is thrilled to present CITY OF HANDS, a short film that profiles four young members of Jingdezhen's ceramics community, exploring what brought them to the city and what made them stay.
Jingdezhen is China’s porcelain capital. Slowly forgotten after being home to the emperor’s imperial kilns for a thousand years, the city is now filled with young artists. An oasis for creatives in China’s urban east, people from all over the country come to Jingdezhen to follow their porcelain dreams. CITY OF HANDS is a look into the lives of four young residents of Jingdezhen. 
+ The screening will be followed by a Q&A; with the filmmakers and a launch of new Wing on Wo porcelain ware.
