-----------------------

About the Artist Imai Ritsuko is a potter who lives near the famous ceramics town of Mashiko in Japan.

With a background in art, Ritsuko has always been drawn to the creative world. She started exploring figurative pottery art for her university course in Japan.

Further developed her ceramic journey was a year spent at the University of Wolverhampton (UK) , where she had a chance to connect with British pottery and acquired a broader sense of ceramic art outside of the Japanese framework.

Ritsuko moved on to finish another ceramics course at the Industrial Technology Center in Mashiko. She has lived there ever since, and built her kiln and family home.
