Yukari Hotta is a ceramic artist born in Tokyo and based in Copenhagen. Her practice explores softness, tactility, and the relationship between object, hand, and space. 

Working in stoneware, she creates vessels and sculptural forms that appear fluid and organic. Surfaces retain the imprint of the hand, where fingerprints and subtle irregularities become part of the final expression. Rather than pursuing perfection, her work embraces character, allowing each piece to develop its own presence. 

Inspired by natural forms and everyday gestures, her objects balance function and sculpture. Through careful shaping and an attention to material, Yukari Hotta transforms clay into forms that invite touch, contemplation, and close observation.
