This year's Salone Del Mobile in Milan included our very own Sakiyama Takayuki!
The Spanish fashion house Loewe commissioned 25 artists and designers from around the world to produce their take on a teapot, and according to the New York Times, Sakiyama's work was one of the standouts.
Loewe’s Ode to the Teapot
Group design exhibitions that feature a single type of object — for example, mugs or stools — have become a mainstay over the past few years. For its latest design-world homage to craftsmanship, the Spanish fashion house Loewe, which presented an array of lamps at last year’s fair, commissioned 25 artists and designers from around the world to produce their take on a teapot. The resulting pieces resemble miniature sculptures, and among the highlights were the American artist Dan McCarthy’s lumpy ceramic vessels adorned with his signature childlike faces; a purple airbrushed version by the Spanish architect and designer Patricia Urquiola; and a frosting-like swirl of white clay by the Japanese ceramist Takayuki Sakiyama.
