new works arrival

Shohei Ono – Shirogane & Kurokesho Plant pots

Plant pot works by contemporary ceramic artist Shohei Ono will be available on the Rurbanism online store starting tomorrow, June 3, at 12:00 PM (JST).

This collection features a series of Plant pots specially created for Rurbanism, showcasing the powerful yet refined character that defines Ono’s work.

The texture of earth.

The traces of fire.

A quiet balance of strength and softness resides within Shirogane and the deep, expressive character of Kurokesho.

Shohei Ono is known for his unique practice of sourcing his own clay directly from the mountains and producing even the raw materials for his glazes by hand. His works embody a singular landscape born from the meeting of human craftsmanship and the forces of nature.

The rich surfaces created through Shirogane and Kurogesho ensure that no two pieces are ever alike. They continuously reveal new expressions as they interact with light, space, and the presence of plants.

As vessels for plants.

Or as sculptural art pieces within a living space.

We invite you to explore the world of Shohei Ono, where nature and everyday life quietly converge.
