YUTA SEGAWA | studio G.1
Yuta Segawa is a Japanese ceramic artist specialising in producing miniature pottery. He learnt high ceramic skills in Japan and China and developed it into techniques of miniature pots in London. All miniature pots are thrown individually and hand-finished, using more than a thousand specially developed glazes which contain the entire colour spectrum. Miniature pottery relates to the issue of the relationship between artists’ bodies and their works. It’s a challenge to test the limits of what a human body can make on such a small scale.
