本研究架構概略敘述：第一章內容包含創作背景、動機、目的、名詞解釋之闡述，並設定研究範圍與限制。第二章以手捏陶壺定義、來源、發展沿革、構造及造型等為文獻探討之要點。第三章以兩岸代表性名家之作品風格與設計應考量之因素加以分析探討、歸納，成為創作手捏陶壺的臨摹參考重點。第四章以臺灣陶土為媒材，透過手捏技法組合雕塑展現，師法自然─將茶器融入植物生命力，故取其字義，將創作與展演主題命名為「器植」，藉由展演將創作理念予以傳達。第五章為本研究之結論與未來展望，透過本創作研究，在創作的思維與技巧上獲得諸多寶貴經驗，從本研究過程與成果中所奠定之經驗基礎，對於未來陶藝創作上，相信能對相關之藝術發展，開拓更寬廣的面向。

In this creative research, the author analyzes, explores and organizes the styles of works of leading masters from Taiwan and China as well as important factors to be considered in pottery designs, through methodologies such as data collection and literature review, to provide important points of reference for emulation in the creation of handmade ceramic teapots. By further incorporating important factors in the design and creation of clay pots and continuing the legacy of excellence in traditional pottery craft, the author aims to create a handmade clay pot that is reflective of a personal style.

As an overview, this paper will engage in the discussion in the following framework. In the first chapter, the creative background, motive, objective, and terminology will be explained, and the research scope and limitations will be defined. In the second chapter, elements such as the definition, origin, history of development, structure, and form of handmade ceramic teapots will be set out as key points in the literature review. In the third chapter, the styles of works of leading masters from Taiwan and China as well as important factors to be considered in pottery designs are analyzed, explored and organized as important points of reference for emulation in the creation of handmade clay pots. In the fourth chapter, the vitality of plants is infused into tea ware based on the notion of subscribing to nature, with Taiwanese clay as medium and material and sculpted using a combination of pinching techniques. Hence the work and exhibition are themed “Plant and Ware”, as derived from the meanings of the words to communicate the creative concept. The fifth chapter provides the conclusion and outlook of the research, where it is hoped that this creative research has provided substantial valuable experience in terms of creative thinking and techniques. It is believed that the process of this research and the foundation of experience established by its results will expand the development of pottery creation in the future.
