Mutou Fumika (武藤文香) Exhibition at Ginza Ono Gallery-2 (小野画廊-2) - (2010/11)

This exhibition (2010/11/01-06) by Mutou Fumika (武藤文香) at Ginza Ono Gallery-2 (小野画廊-2) consists of many interesting items, such as custom wood and bamboo cases for smart phones, and several examples of cups, plates and other ceramic pieces that the artist/instructor has repaired.

It had never occurred to me before that chipped cups and plates could be repaired, but there's a way to do it apparently, and this artist conducts classes showing how it's done.  This website (in Japanese) covers that aspect:

And this is the artist's blog (also in Japanese):
