Edmund de Waal

Edmund de Waal, the British ceramicist and author of the acclaimed memoir "The Hare with Amber Eyes," has redefined the boundaries of porcelain art with his vast installations of meticulously thrown celadon vessels. His work, which often arranges hundreds of near-identical pots in vitrines like musical notes on a staff, transforms porcelain into a medium that captures silence and stillness. De Waal's obsession with the subtle variations in form and glaze has earned him a reputation for creating spaces that are both meditative and profoundly moving, inviting viewers to experience the quiet power of his craft.
