Haniwa Warrior 12 sculpture by Noe Kuremoto
Materials: black stoneware sculpture
Dimensions: D11 x W33 x H59 cm
My interpretation of ancient clay figurine Haniwa.*
For years I was afraid to become an artist.
Afraid to voice my honest view of the world.
Afraid to sacrifice the security and comfort of my day job.
Afraid to admit it was killing my soul.
Afraid of confrontation.
So I stayed agreeable - to avoid it, at all costs.
I did it long enough that I could no longer hear my own voice -
the voice that said what I really want to do is make art.
I kept quiet,
so no one would know I was failing at my true calling.
It became my deep, dark secret.
I was too scared to lose that end of the month pay check.
I’d tell myself – You have a mortgage, a family.
A legitimate excuse, socially acceptable.
But my soul grew weaker and weaker,
the more I didn’t demand the best from myself.
I became my worst self.
Who could kill my own soul.
This is how I came to make my Haniwa.
I would like to share them with you.
Especially you who are ready to take on your maximum challenge.
One you’ve longed for in your heart, longer than you care to admit.
Let us stand up, our souls united, stronger for taking this important true step
together.
All my strength to you.
I salute you.
- Noe Kuremoto 2021
Noe Kuremoto is a ceramic artist who makes everything by hand using simple tools. She’s known for playful sculptural work that takes the form of functional wares. Her pieces mix child-like simplicity with contemporary sophistication, and incorporate her background in Fine Art and design with her cultural heritage. She shares the traditional Japanese view that sprits are everywhere, especially in nature – for Noe the truth of our universe can be found in wilderness. Her signature piece is a single flower vase - an ‘Ichirin Zashi’, which invites the sprit of nature into people’s homes in the simplest form possible. It’s representative of her desire to make a deeper connection in a world that can often feel shallow. “The single vase comes from my deep ocean of childhood memories, I hope every piece I make helps my sons to see the world as a beautiful place.”
Her ceramics are like a beautiful dream that her hands, fire and clay turn into reality.
Noe was born in Osaka Japan, and graduated in Fine Art with First Class Honours from Central Saint Martins College of Art. She works and lives in London with her family, including sausage dog Lassie.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
