Amy Thai (b.1992) is a sculptor working with stone, glass, and porcelain. Rooted in her Vietnamese-Australian heritage and shaped by an international practice spanning Australia, Europe and China, Thai has pursued mastery within the world’s most storied craft traditions. She trained in botanical art in Paris, the center of floral artistry, where she developed skills in creating ephemeral large-scale botanical sculptures. In Carrara, renowned since Roman times for its exceptional marble, she personally selects each marble block and works it by hand, allowing the stone’s unique veining, coloration, and character to guide her process. On the island of Murano in Venice, famed for its centuries-old glassmaking tradition, she collaborates closely with Barovier&Toso ARTE and master glassblowers to create imposing glass pieces that push the medium’s limits. Most recently, she has explored porcelain techniques in Jingdezhen, China’s ‘Porcelain Capital’, with over 1,700 years of ceramic history. Throughout her exploration of these materials, Thai draws consistent inspiration from botanical forms, exploring ephemeral and permanent aspects of the natural world.
