Drifting in Jingdezhen has been a way of life for over a thousand years. Over the centuries, hundreds of thousands of dreamers have come to this city of clay and glaze — to start a career, to learn a craft, or to make it their home. French ceramic artisan Yann Colleu is one such drifter who chose to stay. His story echoes that of countless dreamers before him: he came, he stayed, he built a life. In doing so, he also discovered something unexpected: a natural dialogue between East and West, forged in fire and clay.
