{"title":"EIHI GO","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBased in Tajimi, Japan, Eihi Go is renowned for her captivating ceramic works, playful in their colour palette and poetic in their forms and philosophy. Her practice is deeply rooted in nature and the passage of time, drawing inspiration from old architecture, shrines, old tools, and organic forms. She says: “\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEven today, the sight of a weathered barn in a rice field or an abandoned home captures my attention just as it did when I was a child.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen playing by a local dam as a child, Eihi discovered a natural vein of clay and was soon enthralled with the many possibilities of the material, spending the rest of that day shaping the clay into pretend dishes. This child-like freedom is alive in her work; gentle blue glazes mimic pools of glistening waters, dainty lidded boxes allow for hidden trinkets, and tender forms communicate \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ean effortless beauty that can only be found in decaying objects.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEihi says: “What I express through my ceramics is nostalgia rather than a vision of the future. Living in a fast-paced modern society that rapidly advances while taking a toll on the earth, I hope my vessels and forms serve as an invitation for people to pause. I believe that those who resonate with my work carry a similar landscape within their own hearts.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0233\/5583\/collections\/hj01_57b1c624-5458-4d00-8602-947705dc4934.jpg?v=1790955394","url":"https:\/\/maudandmabel.com\/collections\/eihi-go.oembed","provider":"Maud and Mabel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
