Artist Talk: Kenta Takaki - Turning Porcelain into TOFU
Thursday, August 14, 2025
7:00-8:30PM at the Japan Foundation, Los Angeles
Kumamoto-based ceramist Kenta Takaki encountered Amakusa porcelain while training as a potter in Amakusa, and became drawn to its "whiteness", which inspired him to emphasize the purity of the clay and the grace of vessel forms.
His works range from elegant pure white porcelain vessels to dishes that mimic paper and even sculptural works depicting various forms of tofu.
This artist talk will be held in conjunction with his first solo exhibition in the United States at the Japanese America Cultural and Community Center (JACCC) in Little Tokyo.
Admission free, registration required.
