Oishi Sayaka (b. 1980) expresses the profound interconnectedness of nature through her ceramic works. Here, she invoked the Japanese concept of Mono no aware (物の哀れ), which can be translated as "a sensitivity towards ephemeral things." This idiom reflects an awareness of impermanence, the transient nature of life.


What may initially appear as a random amalgam of life forms and their fragments reveals itself as a deeply humanistic expression of life, an affirmation of a sense of interconnectedness and co-existence within the natural world. Through her vibrant, maximalist designs teeming with life, Oishi’s ceramic works bring forth entire worlds, and by doing so she instills in the viewer an unmistakable sense of empathy and wonder. What do you see in this tea bowl?
