Yuko Nishikawa

Movement project Artist Research - Yuko Nishikawa’s piece named ‘Nap’ is made from ceramic sculptures,steel cables and lights components. It was showcased at the Sculpture Space NYC in Long Island City , New York in 2019. I love this piece because of all the dangling pieces ,it reminds me of my photos i took of my jewellery. I was drawn to all the colours in this sculpture and how the ceramic pieces almost look like they are floating in mid air

Piku-Piku “I started doing ceramic for my own fun, a fun project. In the beginning, I just wanted to throw, to be able to throw. I was making functional pieces, some mugs and things like that. Then I became more interested in lighting. Why don’t I combine this?” - Yuko Nishikawa, Ceramicist. Yuko Nishikawa wants to makes you feel “piku-piku”. “Piku-piku” is a Japanese onomatopoeia word that refers to involuntary movements caused by accidental contact and Nishikawa’s ceramic work wants to “piku-piku” you. Japan-born Nishikawa’s industrial Brooklyn, New York studio is aptly named ‘Forest’. Inside ‘Forest’ are hundreds of ceramic pieces in varying stages. Pieces that are nearly complete rest on a long wooden table made from scrap materials from other studios within the building. Others, which are set to be fired, painted, tossed or archived, sit on shelves and hang (out). Nishikawa moved to the US as a teenager - first to Philadelphia and then to New York when she was 18 years old. After studying ‘Design’ at New York’s ‘Fashion Institute of Technology’ (‘FIT’) Nishikawa found positions at a few of the interior design industry’s most recognised studios: ‘Clodagh’, ‘Billhuber’, ‘Alexandra Champalimaud’ an then ‘Donghia’ - ultimately winning two ‘Interior Design Magazine’ “Best of” Awards during her decade-long stint at the latter. It was while designing furniture and lighting for the company, that she picked up ceramics as a hobby. These pieces were a stark contrast from the style she’d concentrated on previously and she enjoyed the escape. (at New York City, N.Y.) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd7ukAWs4qi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
