En Iwamura

En Iwamura, originally from Kyoto and now based in Shiga, is a multi-disciplinary artist focusing on ceramic sculpture, painting, and drawing. Central to Iwamura’s practice is an exploration of the relationship between his work and the physical exhibition space, and how this interaction influences viewers. Referencing the Japanese philosophy of “Ma,” which denotes a pause in time or an emptiness of space, Iwamura considers the perception of space rather than solely physical components. Iwamura holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Master of Fine Arts from the Kanazawa College of Art and Craft (Japan) and a Master of Fine Arts from Clemson University (USA). He has received residencies at renowned institutions such as the Archie Bray Foundation (USA), the Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute (China), and the Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park (Japan).
