Features: No one can stop the process of globalization; the identities of various local cultures are becoming increasingly blurred, and hybrid cultural attributes are spreading globally at an astonishing speed. Therefore, given the complex human environment of contemporary society, local culture and modernization achieved through Western culture are not inherently incompatible. The issue lies in how we can experience and explore the spirit of local culture, as well as how to embrace and integrate the nourishment of foreign cultures. The creative journey of the contemporary Finnish ceramic artist Kristina Ryska may offer us some inspiration and reference.
