Through bronze, silk, gold and porcelain, Chinese vessels have carried the ideas of their time across generations. How did they evolve across the Shang, Han, Tang and Song dynasties? In what ways did they embody ritual, philosophy and beauty in their own eras and why do they still resonate today?

To explore these questions and more, CGTN presents "Inspiration Across Time," a panel discussion and Q&A at the Asian Civilisations Museum in Singapore. The event is part of China Crafted, the fourth season of CGTN Art Series.

Moderated by Miro Lu, the discussion brings together scholar Dr. Hwang Yin, designer and researcher Gong Pan Pan and ceramics specialist Mathew Welch.
