We’re delighted to share the latest updates from Darian Duan, represented artist at Tido Art Gallery.
As an artist who moves between China and Australia, Darian continues to develophis artistic language with his steady and thoughtful approach to creation.
Each year, Darian sets aside time to work in Jingdezhen, andthis year he has returned once again for an immersive creative period.
This trip focuses on exploring how “beauty” can be re-interpreted withincontemporary porcelain — through new combinations of materials, glazes, andcarving techniques.
In Jingdezhen, surrounded by its rich ceramic culture andcraftsmanship, he finds the freedom to experiment with scale, structure, andtechnical challenges.
We look forward to sharing updates as this new body of work takes shape.


A selection of Darian’s porcelain pieces will be featured in an online auction on Artbid on November 20.
This marks another important step in bringing his work to a broaderinternational audience, and offers new opportunities for Australian andoverseas collectors to engage with his practice.
With growing interest in contemporary ceramics amongcollectors in Australia, Darian is steadily building visibility and a solidfoundation within the market.
This auction will also provide valuable insights as we continue planningupcoming exhibitions and market positioning.
