Lace Cage Bowl

Etsuko Nishi creates sculpture that operates in ambiguity, suggesting something natural or abstract. While Nishi draws on an appreciation for nature, including its variability, she prefers to craft non-representational vessels and forms, such as this Lace Cage Bowl. Well-regarded in contemporary art for her interest in reviving pâte de verre (glass paste), Nishi has spent years experimenting with this exacting kiln casting process.
