En Iwamura
Bulbous cartoon busts populate En Iwamura’s aesthetic universe, which centers on ceramics while also spanning painting and drawing. Born in Japan to two painter parents, Iwamura developed his sculptural practice after he was rejected from Kanazawa College of Art’s painting program, and he enrolled in the school’s craft program instead. Iwamura has exhibited in Tokyo, Brussels, Chicago, and St. Louis, and in 2019, he was named an artist in residence at the Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park in Japan. Though his practice is largely informed by the Japanese philosophical concept of ma, which is concerned with negative space and emptiness, Iwamura considers ceramics to be an international language all its own.

Signed by hand COA provided Ref.: 924802-1809 *Made to Order Every piece is unique, design might differ slightly Customization possible **Lead time approx. 2 weeks for qty 1-3 495 780 Her work references exclusive and precious porcelain wares from 18th-century Europe. In her work she tries to capture the qualities for which porcelain has been known since its discovery in China: whiteness, translucency, and resonance. She is attracted to the enameled and lustered surfaces of the Baroque, Renaissance and Rococo porcelain designs, as well as to elaborations on structural elements of these time periods. She is investigating surface decorations and embellished shapes in order to gain more knowledge for my own studio practice. Sherman is interested in incorporating and referencing historic drawings, motives, and patterns into her work. Studying the history of ceramics Sherman has been captivated by the relationship between East and West, and how they continue to influence each other, especially through the ceramic arts. Although there might be considerable differences between the two civilizations, the cultural exchange between them is an important connector of history and has produced a long and rich exchange of ideas between artists and makers. Asian craft traditions have been handed down to the West and the handmade aspect, even within the factory setting, is still an important concept that allows for control of design and quality by the artist, which is essential within craft of the West.
