This event has ended.

Imura art gallery is pleased to announce Suna Fujita Showroom, an exhibition by ceramic art collaboration Suna Fujita. Shohei Fujita and Chisato Yamano are both active ceramicists working independently, but they have also produced and exhibited work together as Suna Fujita since 2005. Married to each other, they spent some time in Kyoto before relocating to an island in the Seto Inland Sea. This year, they have returned to Kyoto, working in the city again. The ceramic ware produced by Suna-Fuji includes lighthearted depictions of fragmentary scenes from what seems like a familiar past, combined with animals and plants. Each piece is full of humor and wit, and viewers soon find themselves smiling. This exhibition takes advantage of the venue’s characteristics to present the works as a site-specific installation. The worldview of Suna Fujita is heartwarming, replete with fresh and positive surprises.
