About the Artwork

The theme of this work is "Light & Shade." Light and shadow are an eternal contrast in our world. Wherever light exists, shadows are also born. And when these two elements come together in harmony, beautiful scenery and profound expressions are born.

My work was created with this contrast between light and shadow as its theme. Ceramic works made from clay show their beauty along with the shadows that are created when light hits them in nature. Each piece has its own unique beauty, depending on the angle at which the light shines and the transition of the shadow.

"Light & Shade" is a tangible expression of my daily observations and impressions. I hope that through my work, you can sense the beautiful world woven by light and shadow.

Techniques Used

Inlay ceramics

Inlay (zōgan) ceramics are created by making incisions on the surface of a piece which are then filled with a differently colored clay to create a design. After the clay is inlaid, a glaze is applied and the piece is completed upon firing.
