Kenji Uranishi

Kenji Uranishi (QLD) studied at the Nara College of Fine Arts and began his career in Japan working mostly with stoneware clay. A move to Australia in 2004 signalled a critical shift in his practice as he began working predominantly with porcelain, hand building translucent white, often architecturally inspired objects.

Kenji’s interest in the wild and unfamiliar aspects of the Australian environment, and the light and patterns in architecture, nature and everyday life began to permeate his artwork. He has an ongoing interest in capturing precious moments in time, the fragility of life and fleeting moments of beauty.

Kenji Uranishi is Jeffery Mincham’s nominee for Treasures.

Kenji Uranishi is represented by Beaver Galleries.
