DREAM

Illustrated is a bold sometsuke plate by eccentric calligrapher, painter, potter, lacquer artist and exploiter of various other mediums; Sato Katsuhiko. Painted in rich, deep cobalt gosu, the porcelain plate was provided and Sato created a dreamy kanji, yume which means dream. Considering his background, his ability to merge 2-D and 3-D is nothing short of impressive but it is the wide array of works, styles, imagery and eccentricity that makes the works of Sato Katsuhiko so impressive and dynamic.
