8/ ART GALLERY/ Tomio Koyama Gallery is pleased to present “Ceramics of People, Animals and Plants”, an exhibition of works by Suna Fujita, a production unit by Shohei Fujita and Chisato Yamano. Based in Kyoto, Fujita and Yamano engage in their own artistic practice, while collaborating on ceramic pieces for everyday use under the unit “Suna Fujita.” Suna Fujita’s works depict motifs of animals and plants, as well as fragments of imagined landscapes and memories in humorous and witty ways, bringing joy and smiles to viewers. This exhibition will feature various items including lidded containers, tea bowls, teacups, soupspoons, tea pots, chopstick rests, and plates. We invite viewers to enjoy the unique world of the diversely illustrated narratives that these works present.

Chisato Yamano’s exhibition is being held concurrently at ADK Art Gallery from March 25.
