Mae Chan

Mae Chan fuses textile, sculpture, and craft in a process of bringing her closer to the self, in an intentional act of self-reparation and sincerity. By manipulating medium and materiality, she creates physical manifestations narrating the exact moment of a subtle emotional shift.

Chan lives and works in Hong Kong. After she graduated from the Royal College of Art (2021) with an MA in Textiles, Chan received the ‘Developing Your Creative Practice’ Grant from Arts Council England and the ‘Air Green Residency’ Grant from the ‘Norwegian Textile Artists’ Association 2022. She was also a finalist nominee for the 2021 Ingram Prize and The New Craftsmen Award at Cockpit Arts (2021). Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including Exit Gallery (HK), HART(HK), Thrown(UK), London Craft Week (UK), Visual Arts Scotland (UK), Unit 1 Gallery | Workshop (UK), Young Space Views (UK), Kühlhaus (Berlin) and Søndre Green (Norway).
