Liou feels that Taiwan's art schools imitate modern American ceramics, but due to historical and cultural factors America has yet to develop a ceramics tradition. American artists merely experiment with forms and use the same glazes over and over.
他認為現有的台灣藝術學校都習仿美國的現代陶藝，但美國的歷史和文化涵養還不足以衍生出陶藝傳統，只能在造型上琢磨而用色千篇一律，很難與傳統陶瓷的極致委約、風華內斂相抗衡。
