Kiyoshi Saito created "White Porcelain" with woodblock printing, presenting a structured composition of rectangular blocks and linear elements. The artwork’s limited palette of brown, black, white, and gray enhances the stark contrast and the reductive forms. Saito fragments the pictorial space into a grid, reminiscent of modernist abstraction, yet retains a representational element through the depiction of porcelain objects. The objects rest on horizontal planes, while vertical and horizontal lines intersect, creating a complex network. This framework serves not only as a compositional element, but also as a structural metaphor, suggesting a deeper examination into the organization of space and form. The interplay between positive and negative space encourages viewers to reconsider traditional notions of perception and representation. Saito challenges fixed perspectives, inviting endless interpretations.
