Ryota Aoki
Ryota Aoki’s various works embrace sharp and sophisticated forms, richly glittering iridescent gloss, and blackness resembling lava. Standing firmly on the ground of ceramic tradition, he has produced a variety of works including tea ceremony objects, wine glasses, sculptures, and objects for interior display, all with a contemporary sensitivity. By exploring the original technique of blending glaze with porcelain, and continuing to research glaze and the use of gold, silver and platinum, as well as by repeating over ten thousand test pieces, Aoki presents new styles like a fashion designer who creates a new line every season. This exhibition will mainly feature new works made with a wood-fired kiln, a process which Aoki started exploring this year.
