We are pleased to present an exhibition of Hanako Nakazato, who works from studios in both Karatsu, Japan, and Maine, USA. Rooted in the clay and techniques of Karatsu, her vessels carry a modern, free spirit, reflecting the lifestyles and food cultures of both countries. Soft, generous forms, rich clay colors, and subtle spaces enhance food and flowers while bringing quiet presence to everyday life. This exhibition focuses on teaware and sake vessels, with many square plates adding gentle contrast to tables usually filled with round forms. Please take them in your hands and feel, through their forms and textures, Nakazato’s sensibility and her vision of daily life.
