Robert Shiozaki

Biography  

Robert Shiozaki is an honours graduate in ceramics from the Vancouver School of Art. He has also studied at the Kyoto School of Fine Arts in Japan. The discipline towards perfecting his craft comes from his ethnic roots and the Japanese reverence and appreciation for ceramics. His most recent work is influenced by his graphic design skills and by the art of the indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest.

Artist’s Statement

" Memorable and inspirational mentors have given me an approach to my work,alway as a student,and this in turn has lead to a pursuit filled with discovery.Pottery making has bestowed upon me the pleasure of working in solitude, a contemplative lifestyle of sorts.It has given me the opportunity to meet a diversity of people and gain the knowledge of their understanding and appreciation of things made by inspired,independent and individually reative endeavors.I always hope the work speaks for itself."
