The Exhibition
This is a solo exhibition, “PAGEANT – Children in Maskes -”, by SAYA WORKSHOP. We hope you enjoy the experience.
From the Artist
Hi, we are SAYA WORKSHOP.
We want to share you the secret story through our artwork.
Try not to ruin the world of Saya Pottery, and at the same time, we won’t push our story too much.
Therefore, we don’t give a name to each doll (As an exception, we give name to not-for-sale artworks).
When the dolls arrive at your place, the new pages start.
Word from our exhibition title “PAGEANT” is the word which has the origin of masque, and flipping the page.
–
This is our 2nd solo exhibition at Picaresque Art Gallery.
Thanks to all who give us this chance.
Please come and flip the new page at SAYA WORKSHOP’s PAGEANT.
And, we are looking forward to your spinning of a new story.
