"I used to think there are only two types of porcelain: the ancient pieces that sit in the museums, and the bowls we use at home. But here there are many more choices. I’m really amazed by the creativity," a visitor said.

The local authorities are encouraging this trend, as the industry has been struggling at a time when cheap labor and industrialization are outstripping traditional craftsmanship.

Favorable conditions are attracting more artists to the porcelain capital. This park, for example, used to be a state-owned factory that went bankrupt. The manager has turned it into a creative park, and it has since become a big draw for artists.
