Meaning
Gentle | Wise | Lively
The sky-blue base evokes the pale light of dawn, while the glaze naturally forms white ice-flower crystalline patterns, resembling snow in the air.
Huang Meng named this piece “Cloud Breath”, symbolizing vitality within stillness and strength within softness, reflecting “balance” in Eastern philosophy.
When worn, the crystalline patterns catch the light, creating a sense of calm and serenity.
The eyes of the WaMao (tile cat) are quiet — watching over the balance within the human heart.
The “Phantoms of the Mythic Beasts” collection is an exclusive creation for VIVIDAION by independent designer Huang Meng, inspired by the traditional tile cat motifs of Yunnan. Through miniature ceramic sculpture and experimental glaze techniques, he reinterprets this ancient symbol of protection into four wearable amulets.
Each piece explores the meaning of “guardianship” through the language of modern ceramics — where glaze, form, and the chance of fire converge to shape the soul of the work.
Huang Meng’s creations embrace the “marks of time” and the “beauty of imperfection” in handcraft. Within each small form lies emotional tension and the warmth of materiality. Worn as bracelet, pendant, or charm, the ancient guardian comes from the roof of old houses into your palm to protect you in daily life.
His works are gentle yet powerful, and those quiet observers are guardians of both life and inner peace.
Huang Meng reinterprets traditional symbols through handcrafted ceramics. Each of the four glazes and forms carries its own emotion, bringing the ancient imagery of guardianship into contemporary life. Whether worn or displayed, each piece offers an intimate dialogue with art, protecting both your life and your wishes.
