At the wonderful age of eighty, Toshiko Fujiyama is a shining reminder that there is no age limit to creativity, curiosity or learning new skills.
Toshiko’s exquisite works are quietly and contemplatively crafted in the solitude of her studio in Japan, where the two countries and cultures she calls home — Japan and Australia — meet in forms inspired by nature.
Toshiko’s artistic journey began as a celebrated wood carver, creating intricate works by hand. Those finely honed skills have found a beautiful new expression in her ceramics, where carved, hand-built forms are layered with delicate textures — a nod to her enduring love of fabric and textile design.
There is something wonderfully serene about these pieces. Toshiko’s quiet presence seems to emanate through every considered mark and texture. Each work is made to be touched, held, or to hold the simple beauty of flowers and foliage.
A truly special collection from a remarkable maker 🌿
