By famed artist, Akio Takamori (Japanese, 1950–2017). Wheel thrown, hand built, and sgraffito- decorated porcelain. Signed on interior. Beautiful to view and touch. Circa 1980s. Collection of Randy Cook, former Archie Bray artist.
Takamori is one of the most celebrated ceramic artists of his time:
"Takamori was a seminal figure in ceramic art, whose work over the past thirty years has left an enduring impact on the Pacific Northwest arts and the medium itself. His work is often autobiographical, drawing on his life in Japan, his family, and mythological themes. He is known for his coil-built figurative sculptures in which the narrative painting defines the form. Takamori explored themes of cultural identity by engaging the history of Eastern and Western aesthetics. Bold form and color defines his body of work, which is highly expressive of human emotion and sensuality.."- taken from James Harris Gallery.
