My aim will be to root my position in crafts while at the same time working interdisciplinary across areas of interest such as digital technology, anthropology and material culture that have always been the base of my practice, and to develop new methods and processes that may be of relevance to the wider audience and international community of crafts, art and design, says Nicolas Cheng.
