Eriko Inazaki. Sculpture: Metanoia, 2019. Ceramic. 20 x 20 x 24 cm. Awarded at: LOEWE FOUNDATION Craft Prize 2023. . This delicate work transcends the expectations of hand-crafted ceramics and has been painstakingly created using hundreds of minuscule components. Taking over a year to complete, the complexity has been achieved by layering and arranging these small yet intricate forms and fixing them to a clay core before firing them in the kiln. The fragility of its tiny component pieces imbues the work with a magical quality. Their careful composition creates a sense of bursting, radiant energy across the work’s surface, evoking a symphony. This work demonstrates an essential balance between technical excellence and artistry.. Eriko Inazaki
