Ceramic Relief "Auspicious Fuji" / Original Painter and Supervisor : KATAOKA Tamako, Modeling : Louis FRANSEN / Lobby on 1st floor, New Building, Fujisawa City Hall / Installed on June, 1983 / Branch Office, Fujisawa City Hall, Moved on January, 2020
Commentary
This ceramic relief was produced based on an original painting by Ms. KATAOKA Tamako, a Japanese-style painter, under her own supervision.
Ms. KATAOKA is a painter who uses typical Japanese motifs in her bold, vividly-colored paintings. She is particularly known for her paintings featuring Mt. Fuji.
Mr. Louis Fransen, a public artist, added his sculptural sense and glaze expertise to transform the original flat Red Mt. Fuji into this three-dimensional mountain without sacrificing the brilliant, bold image of the original. After this three-dimensional transformation, the Red Mt. Fuji has become even more powerful and brilliant.
It has been installed in the city hall of Fujisawa city in Kanagawa prefecture to welcome citizens.
