Kasumi Ueba

Kasumi Ueba brings a vivid, joyful voice to Japanese ceramics. Her celebratory vessels are adorned with auspicious motifs — treasures, symbols of good fortune — composed with painterly freedom and finished with luminous gold interiors that glow the moment they are lifted.

Festive yet refined, her work carries the symbolic richness of Japanese tradition into a thoroughly contemporary palette: pieces made for toasts, gifts, and moments worth marking.

wanova presents selected works by Kasumi Ueba. Viewing at our Roppongi gallery, Tokyo (by appointment).

Why This Artist Matters

Japanese ceramics can be solemn. Ueba reminds us they can also be joyful. She takes the oldest good-luck symbols in the culture and paints them with a freedom that feels entirely present-tense — tradition, laughing.

What to Look For

Find the treasures: the magic mallet, the sacred jewel, the hat of invisibility. Then lift the cup — the gold interior is meant to flash at the moment of the toast. Look for the density and rhythm of the motifs.
