Born and raised in Japan, Midori Takaki is a wonderful ceramic artist based in Canterbury, England. I love what she says about her figures: “I am drawn to faces. I always start from making a face and try to find a spirit in it. I will make full figures if the faces tell me enough about who they are. But at other times they won’t say anything, or they are complete without bodies. Then they become masks.”  Read the full interview here. I invite you to visit the artist’s website to see more of her work. And here is her shop.
