Visions of a Blue Moon
Contemporary Arita Porcelain by Terauchi Shinji 14 January - 10 February 2025This January, Dai Ichi Arts is pleased to introduce a new collection by Arita-based maker Terauchi Shinji. For years, Terauchi has collaborated with Michelin-starred restaurants in New York and Japan. Now, he boldly asks “What’s next?” for Arita’s porcelain art and the legacy of his kiln, Risogama.
In his New York debut collection of new Arita porcelain, Terauchi reimagines the moon and our celestial universe- both of which are inspiring and universal symbols in both Western and Japanese culture. Dedicated to natural materials such as clay, silver, gold, cobalt, his work celebrates the evolving essence of Arita ware.
The collection captivates with its contemporary flair, diverse textures, and vibrant colors, each evoking a unique aspect of the moon's character. Through intricate patterns and dynamic forms, Terauchi pushes the boundaries of form and function. These sculptural vessels are not only visually striking but also practical, ideal for serving Osechi, the traditional Japanese New Year dishes.
