"Shojohi" is a work by Yamada Akira that is striking for its deep, clear red.
Known since ancient times as a noble color, scarlet is a traditional color that symbolizes Japanese color culture, combining vividness with serenity and depth.
The surface of the vessel is covered with soft curves created by carving, and the shades of red change gently depending on the angle of the light and the viewing position.
Although it is free of decoration, the shape and color itself have a strong presence, giving it the appearance of an objet d'art that goes beyond its original purpose.
This piece is a condensed expression of the artist's exploration of color and form, which is unique to him as he has continued to exhibit his work both domestically and internationally for many years.
This piece will transform your everyday life into a special experience.
