Apples
Ceramic

My work is inspired by natural landscape and in particular the sea. I love exploring ways that clay can take on physical and decorative aspects and through art can create universe from the palm of a hand.

Cranes
Ceramic

My art work is based on my Japanese origin. I picked up the Japanese origami folding paper to show my Japanese culture, tradition, sense and beauty.
I hope people in Australia can see and feel Japan through my cermic work.
As people know Japan has quite long ceramic history but I create new type of ceramic work to show myself.
All the origami shapes are very common in Japan and everybody used to make them when they were a child.
One of the most famous origami shapes is the crane, which is symbol of peace in Japan .
If people see my work and they think and have more interest in Japan, and myself as an artist, I am very appriciated.

Drawing on the symbolic meaning of animals, Steve creates creatures that are curiosly entrancing, somewhat off-centre and forever the subject of musing. The sculptures are hand built from raku clay, underglazed and finished in oxide.
