Join us for the opening drinks party for the solo exhibition featuring the ceramic works of Akihiko Ishijima from Japan.

Due to rigorous training under Hagi ceramicist, Kaneta Sanzaemon, Ishijima’s tableware is very much influenced by the Hagi style, some even using the classic ‘Oni Hagi’ crawling glaze. In addition to this, he also uses his wood-fired kiln to create some incredibly striking pieces using an iron glaze, reminiscent of the famous tenmoku ceramics from Kyoto.

However, His most unique works are by far his intricately crafted ‘2D’ works. For these pieces he has won many prestigious awards and participated in many exhibitions throughout Japan and overseas.

To celebrate the opening of our art exhibition, we will be hosting a drinks party starting from 6pm on 30th November. Come to Unit S303 at PMQ and enjoy some bubbly along with some Japanese snacks. The first night of the exhibition will be the best opportunity to see the full range of the incredibly unique works!
