Gallery LNL is proud to present Basara: the beauty of excess, an exhibition featuring new works by Aaron Scythe. Scythe's work stands at the confluence of rigorous technical mastery and deeply personal expression, forging a unique path within contemporary ceramics.
Born in Auckland, New Zealand in 1971, Scythe's early fascination with ceramics led him on a transformative journey to Japan, where he spent over 17 years developing his practice. A pivotal moment in his artistic development was his apprenticeship with the master ceramicist Ryoji Koie, who profoundly impacted Scythe's approach to clay.
This exhibition, underscores Scythe's relentless pursuit of innovation within the ceramic medium. His works are not merely objects, but tangible expressions of a life lived across cultures, a testament to the beauty found in imperfection, and a continuous dialogue between the artist, the material, and the world around him.
