Reimagining Nature: Hitomi Hosono s Memories in Porcelain 3 November 15 December 2017 Artist Talk: 22 November 2017, 6pm The artist will be joined in conversation by Dr. Nicole Coolidge Rousmaniere, Research Director of the Sainsbury Institute, Professor of Japanese Art and Culture at the University of East Anglia and IFAC Handa Curator in Japanese Arts at The British Museum. Please book online at www.dajf.org.uk Spaces are limited Combining memories of her mother s garden in Gifu with inspiration found in the parks of London, the work of Hitomi Hosono demonstrates a meticulous study of botanical forms. Hosono makes use of hand-carved models and plaster moulds, to make press-moulded and hand-carved individual porcelain plant forms. Hundreds of these porcelain leaves and flowers are then applied to vase or bowl forms enveloping the object s underlying shape to create an intensely intricate texture that captivates with its delicate beauty.
