Rayn Leow began his journey into the world of ceramics while seeking an outlet for his creativity during his service in the army. He then joined his family’s construction business, where he picked up Computer-Aided Design (CAD), and additive manufacturing (3D printing). Intrigued by the possibilities of combining these skills with his passion for ceramics, Rayn embarked on a personal journey of self-fulfilment.
Rayn believes that the key to realizing his artistic vision is in welding control over his medium. Calling on his experience in laboratory research, he conducted thousands of material tests to create a working system of complementary clay bodies and glazes over a span of four years.
His overwhelming love of ceramics eventually led him to leave the security of his family business to build his own brand. Rayn launched Ceramication, a boutique porcelain studio, in August 2020. From the molds and forms to the clay bodies and glazes, all formulations and processes are laboriously designed and made in Singapore. Using only the finest minerals sourced from around the world, every individual piece passes through the hands of the artist numerous times, giving them their unique signature of handmade studio ceramics.
Through Ceramication, Rayn hopes to inspire others to choose their own path of happiness through self-discovery and liberation from living up to others’ expectations.
