Minnesota Marine Art Museum: “On the Surface” Porcelain Vessels – Winona, MN

Mar 12, 2023 | art/design

“On the Surface” features 16 porcelain vessels from Hitomi Hosono, a ceramic artist based in London, England. Her detailed porcelain vessels, which reference the natural world and botanical specimens, grace the collections of the British Museum and Victoria and Albert Museum. Hosono’s work brings intuition, delicacy and an intuitive touch to her intricate floral creations etched in chalky white clay. Inspired by internationally lauded Wedgwood’s Jasperware, pioneered by Josiah Wedgwood over 200 years ago, in which thin ceramic reliefs or ‘sprigs’ were applied as surface decoration to a piece, Hosono details the veins of a leaf branch and how its edges are shaped to create a poetics in ceramics only the Japanese heritage and mastery of English ceramic tradition can offer.

On view now at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum through April 30th, 2023.
