Marine Textures Objet d'Art 27 ORIGIN_Mikawachi Ware This exquisite colorIn this objet dart, Alyne Ohigashi imaginatively draws inspiration from marine life and biology to create a fantastical porcelain sculpture. Inspired by the textures of dry coral, this piece also recalls the shape of a sand dollar or perhaps even the ridges of a cactus. Every element of the texture is individually crafted and applied by hand, giving this piece an organic rhythm. Wonderfully tactile, it offers new ways of experiencing form and color.
