Without Leaving Your Room manifests research into the representation of landscape in Chinese art and the role it played in the development of Chinese decorative arts and the crafting of objects for the scholar's studio. Julie & Jesse explore the ability of these artefacts to trigger the imagination, allowing viewers to be transformed to the scale of the microcosm, roaming mountains and valleys.

"... Without leaving your room you may sit to your heart's content among streams and valleys..." - Guo Xi (AD1000–1090)
This work combines a vocabulary of archetypal Chinese vase forms cast from industrial moulds with a glazing process the duo devised that places value on an additive dimensional layer rather than the negative space or surface of the form. The resulting pieces challenge the vases’ intrinsic decorative and practical purpose to infuse them with a cognitive function.
Julie & Jesse can make new pairs or an installation of Without Leaving Your Room. Color has to be in line with the concept of the work. Each piece is unique. Photography is for reference only.
