Forms of Everyday Asia

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:38 GMT

Many traditional forms of Asia are most eloquently seen in the everyday pots used in different countries. Refined over thousands of years, journeying through material and functional evolutions, the everyday pot of Asia is simultaneously practical and common, philosophical and symbolic.

The lota and the kalash of India, the chanoyu tea kettles of Japan, Chinese ceramic pots of everyday use – all are objects of deep beauty: both outer and inner. Ceremonial, functional, sculptural, festive, sublime, mystical, symbolic: the everyday pot is a container of potential and possibilities – an envelope for fluidity.

This exhibition of selected pots from India, Singapore, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Myanmar, Laos, Philippines, and Malaysia, will give the local and international design community a direct experience of the rich formal traditions of Asia.

This exhibition is jointly curated by Prof. Kirti Trivedi (of IDC, India) and Prof. Suresh Sethi (of ADM, NTU).
