Description

Satoshi Kino’s porcelain sculptures are inspired by the serenity inherently found in water, the air, plants, and other natural elements. Furthermore, he tries to replicate the tension that quietly exists in our surroundings, and convey that through his works.
Kino draws inspiration for many of his pieces from the Japanese words used to describe the natural world. By combining the use of porcelain as a medium, the challenge of using the potter’s wheel and the meaning of the eloquent words, Kino’s work conveys a distinctive narrative.
