Born in Toronto, Canada and now based in Tokyo, the multi-talented artist Eunice Luk works in mediums ranging from ceramic sculpture, silk screen, and installation to the publication of artist books. Taking up a residency at The Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park in 2015, she created the series being displayed in this fair, “No Egg is Perfect”, using the earth of Shigaraki and the local method of hand-forming. The ceramic sculptures made with bumpy, unformed, soft outlines and colored with pale gradation were inspired by the landscape and living things of the countryside during her daily experience and encounters with nature in Shigaraki. Luk’s artworks brimming with an original hand-made quality are filled with a fascination that draws viewers into a warm, gentle, and rich poetic world.
