Modern Japanese Ceramics
sold, with thanks! I find this piece captivating, the golden thorns rupturing the rough and blank matte white clay. When I asked the artist about his concept, he explained the clay body is the individual formed by self-image, societal pressure, ego, all the things which constrict our actions and channel our emotions. The thorns are the true inner self bursting out of the surface, irrepressible, they pierce the shell and shine like the sun...

Thus, Shoji never signed his works, where he too wanted people to simply appreciate his ceramics, not his notoriety...
