        Ritsue Mishima moved to Venice in 1989, and began visiting the glass workshops of the Murano islands to collaborate with the glass artisans there from 1996. In 2001 she was awarded the Giorgio Armani prize for Best Artist at Sotheby’s Contemporary Decorative Arts Exhibition held in London. She makes large organic forms often influenced by nature and is one of the few artists in Venice working almost exclusively in clear glass. Her major shows in recent years have included an exhibit at the Venice Biennale in 2009, a solo show at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in the Netherlands in 2011 and as part of a project ‘Spring at Palazzo Fortuny’ Venice in 2014.

        Ken Mihara makes hand-built unglazed stoneware sculptures. His sophisticated vessel forms are paradoxical- ly simple and complex. The pieces are made from a locally sourced iron-rich clay, and are repeatedly fired to archieve his subtle surfaces.

        His work is in over 40 public collections, including The Metroplitian Museum of Art, USA, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, USA, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, USA, The Victoria and Albert Musuem, London, Musée Tomo, Tokyo, Japan.

        With three decades of experience, and traveling annually to Japan to cultivate her passion, Katie Jones has a keen eye in spotting up-and-coming contemporary Japanese applied artists. In her distinguished career representing a continually evolving group of cutting edge Japanese artists, she represents the best of Japan's current generation in a wide range of media - including ceramic, metalwork, textile, bamboo, lacquer and glass that is not-to-be missed.


        Arguably, no other society has so consistently valued and encouraged artistic endeavour as a central component of civilised living as Japan. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given cultural and physical distances, the breadth of Japan's artistic achievements through the 20th century remains unfamiliar in the west.
