上海冬天
東子過著候鳥般地生活，當(dāng)大雁飛過她的頭頂時，她的心也跟著來到了南方，本來要到云南大理過冬天的，因為緣份住到了上海汾陽路110號的一棟老式西班牙別墅里，帶著她一歲半的女兒開始了她的創(chuàng)作之冬。經(jīng)過三個月的時間，她和周圍的環(huán)境融為了一體，在她生活即藝術(shù)的狀態(tài)里，我們可以看到陶瓷花開在油畫上、大提琴脫去了傳統(tǒng)的外衣，站在了花叢間，詩歌被印成布掛成了窗簾，浴缸里的青花小魚們在交頭接耳，古老的樓梯扶手高興的笑成了娃娃，也許，還可以看到青花的麻將擺成花園樓臺。。。。。。
“藝術(shù)使平凡的生活閃光
創(chuàng)作可以幫助我們抵達(dá)自由的故鄉(xiāng)”
禪貓東子簡介：
禪貓東子 本名王東 生于北京
1988年從北京工藝美校（現(xiàn)北京工業(yè)藝術(shù)設(shè)計學(xué)院）畢業(yè)之后，她留校五年專門負(fù)責(zé)神路陶藝工作室，并于1993年創(chuàng)立北京第一家陶藝藝術(shù)中心， 自1993年開始她前往貴州 云南 西藏 河北 陜西等地了解學(xué)習(xí)中國民間陶藝制作，并游歷法國 西班牙 埃及 尼泊爾 等地了解學(xué)習(xí)世界各地民間陶藝制作。
1994年，她曾獲得法國國家獎學(xué)金赴法國與法國陶藝家進(jìn)行學(xué)習(xí)和交流；
2000年她的陶藝青花作品入選《拼詩活字》意大利芬澤國際陶藝競賽展；
她先后出版的隨筆《藝術(shù)花園-做陶藝的法國女人》、《煙盒》、《在大理的星空下接吻》及《寫給上帝的情書》都記載了她學(xué)習(xí)民間藝術(shù)以及做陶的足跡。東子的青花線描傳承了中國民間傳統(tǒng)。
東子心里揣著對心靈故鄉(xiāng)的幻想，不停地創(chuàng)作著、樂觀地生活著。世上的一切對于她來講都是她童話世界的玩伴。她的許多作品是留給宇宙的記憶、是給神看的，所以她并不在乎她的作品是什么、在哪里、屬于誰。

Oil Painting, Installation Art, Ceramics, etc.
Zencat Invites You
To enjoy her collections from a Secret Garden
In the winter of Shanghai
Dongzi lives her life like a migratory bird; her heart leads her South when the wild goose flies overhead. She originally planned to go to Dali, but fate brought her to an old, Spanish-style house located at 110 Fenyang Road in Shanghai. With her 18-month old daughter in tow, she started her most recent creative project in the winter of 2007. During the last three-months, she completely immersed herself in her surroundings. In her collection, you will discover blue and white ceramic blossoms on canvas, a cello with a new face standing in the garden, poetry written on cloth and hanging on the wall, ceramic fish chatting in a bathtub, and more …
“Art can brighten our ordinary lives;
Creation enables us to return home to our freedom”

BIO: ZEN CAT DONGZI：
Original Name: WANG Dong, born in Beijing
Dongzi graduated from Beijing Art & Design Academy in 1988. After graduation, she ran a ceramic studio for five years. In 1993, she established the 1st Ceramic Art Center in Beijing. From 1993 onward, she conducted study tours of traditional Chinese ceramic art in many Chinese provinces including Shanxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, Xizang & Hebei. She also conducted international study tours of world folk ceramic art in many countries including Spain, France, Egypt and Nepal. In 1994, she was awarded a scholarship from the French National Art Academy to study and work with French ceramic artists.
In 2000, her blue and white ceramic work Play Chinese Character for Poetry was selected for exhibition at the Faenza International Competition in Italy. From 2001 to 2007, she published numerous books of essays, including Art Garden – the French Woman Who Makes Ceramic，Cigarette Box，Kissing Underneath the Starry Sky of Dali and Love Letters to God. These books record her steps along the way as she studied folk art and made ceramics. The designs on her blue and white ceramic works are strongly influenced by Chinese folk traditions.
Always meditating on the birthplace of her soul, Dongzi continues unceasingly to create her art and to live her life joyfully. Everything in this world seems to her as the trappings of her fairy tales. The majority of her work is dedicated to the memory of Universe, meant for God to see, so she is not worried about what her works look like, where they end up, or to whom they belong.
