For thousands of years, women have been highly active in the production of ceramics, but their names have largely been unknown. Soaring Voices demonstrates the shift in Japanese society toward individual women artists becoming recognized in an artistic realm traditionally dominated by men. This traveling exhibition features 87 works by 25 exceptional women artists who reflect Japan’s rich and innovative ceramic culture.

Soaring Voices was developed by The Shigaraki Ceramic Cultural Park, Shiga Prefecture, and hus-10, Inc., Tokyo, Japan; the tour was organized by International Arts and Artists, Washington, D.C., and generously supported in part by the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation and the S&R Foundation.
