Rebeka Tam is

a visual artist, a ceramicist, a maker, a curator for art projects, a teaching artist

Graduated from RMIT Univeristy (BA Fine Arts, major in Ceramics) in 2008, and finished a MA Cultural Management at CUHK in 2013. Rebeka has been working as an art educators for nearly 20 years, and active in leading several community arts projects for years. For example, "Urban Rural Sustainability Community Art project" by YMCARTS & co-curating community projects for Tin-Library. Day dreaming & making with clay in studio is the most treasurable time for me, the direction of my works focus on playing and exploring the material limitations of clay, yet now I love more to be friend with clay.
