Product Information
Description
Presented at SCP, Illusion of Shapes by ceramicist Reiko Kaneko is a contemplative exploration of form, fragility, and the forces that define our material and emotional worlds.

“Whilst making these pieces, I have been thinking about two things, What is the shape of the smallest thing? Are sub-atomic building blocks perfect spheres, or are they irregular and imperfect? Scientists don’t yet know but believe they have no shape in the traditional sense—they are point-like, tiny bundles of energy. When we imagine a material world built not of static forms, but of kinetic, ever-shifting energy, the very notions of perfection and imperfection feel less relevant. Kintsugi plays with the idea of illuminating the imperfect, something that feels real to most of us but the building blocks of matter point to the relevance of energy and connections.  Which leads to my other question; What is worthwhile living? So I’ve been making these finely balanced pieces thinking about feeling and connections”

Illusion of Shapes invites viewers to look up and engage with the interplay of light and shadow, presence and absence, connections formed with fragile threads — all precariously hanging in balance.
