Chisato Yasui

Chisato's sculptural works are created using coil forming, which allows her to maintain flexibility and create forms that can be cut, separated, or combined. This specific technique allows the artist to follow her instincts and consequently be more intuitive and spontaneous in the process of art creation. Chisato uses both porcelain and stoneware, as well as glazed and pigmented clay. Chisato uses both porcelain and stoneware, as well as glazed and pigmented clay.

Works from the series Profile, Fort and Monolith, are formed by oxidation firing with up to three different glazes to the body, generating innovative textures and colours. Their abstract and geometric shapes are similar to what can be found in nature, in the form of crystal rocks.

Chisato's work explores the complexity of the world we live in and the limitations of existing constructs, cultures, societies, and respective histories.
