Yoichiro Kamei was born in 1974 in Kagawa Prefecture, Japan. He is one of the most appreciated young ceramic artists. With more than 10 solo exhibitions had in the past ten years in Kyoto, Tokyo, Aichi, Osaka and Faenza, he was awarded the Merit Prize at the 1st Taiwan International Ceramics Biennale in 2004. In 2010 he received the Kyoto City Artist Prize, which is one of the most valuable Japanese art awards.
Yoichiro Kamei has created two new ceramic based sculptures this year, the one above and the other into the post which has some detailed images. I highly recommend to see a post I did last year about his previous work, here, or just visit his website. I would like to see his work IRL as these geometric tri-dimensional structures play with the perspective.
