Mayumi Nakamura Concept of Art-works

I have always worked to integrate painting and craft in my work.
This is similar to the decorative beauty of the crafts practiced by the Rinpa period in Japan in the past.

I create my works by reflecting on the current events, news, social networking services, popular words, information and atmosphere that surrounds me.

Sometimes the earth is filled with the emotions that overflow from the intense and strong resentment, and at other times it expresses the rhythm of beautiful and peaceful everyday life, and in various forms.

The work created this time was conceived in the world of pandemics.
The ‘instability’ and ‘unusualness’ that emerged from an environment that changed from day to day.

Nevertheless, I put the ‘hope’ that the world would come together into a form that has both ‘vessels’ and ‘not vessels’ attributes. The glaze is then applied in layers and fired to complete the artwork as a single expression.
