Ceramic artist Shi Zhen, who created the work, is an inheritor of the firing technique of celadon, the signature Yue Kiln product, in east China's Zhejiang Province.
Shi decided to promote China's excellent traditional culture through celadon after hearing that Ningbo City, Zhejiang is going to host beach volleyball, sailing and windsurfing competitions during the Hangzhou 2022 Asian Games.
It took her nearly half a year to finish the ceramic work featuring beach volleyball.

The ceramic work is 24 centimeters tall and 28.5 centimeters wide. It displays various moves in beach volleyball that reflect the competitive spirit in athletes.
"I wanted to give my works a modern touch. I used some special methods to help the work better express itself and convey harmony between man and nature," said Shi, adding that the work combines the ocean culture of Ningbo with the spirit of the Asian Games.
