Collection: Eiichi Shibuya

A ceramic artist based in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Eiichi entered the world of ceramics under the guidance of his grandfather, who was a potter. Although he uses the traditional Daido-tsuchi clay local to Hagi, Eiichi’s work is characterized by a unique expression that does not adhere to traditional norms. Fascinated by the beauty of the passage of time seen in ancient cultural assets, he creates works such as the “Chi-no-utsuwa” series, which are inspired by the passage of time in modern forms. He is dedicated to creating artistic expressions that allow one to feel the extraordinary within the ordinary.
