Yo was born in Tokyo and after a degree in English Language in Japan she came over to Britain and started a 3D design course at the Kent Institute of Art and Design.
During her introductory course, she was hooked on ceramics and decided to take a BA in Ceramics. She also started assisting Lisa Hammond whilst at college and carried on as a full-time apprentice with her after obtaining an MA.
She established her own studio in Deptford in 2004 producing hand thrown functional stoneware and porcelain with carbon-trapped Shino and Blue Celadon glazes.
Yo moved to Hackney in 2006, producing domestic ware in an electric kiln in her studio, and some one-off vessels in a wood-fire kiln in Surrey.
Rosanjin Kitaoji is one of her favourite potters of all time. She believes that his work is unique and fresh, but deeply rooted in Japanese tradition.
“His devotion to the utmost beauty in the harmony between food and vessel fascinates many people. I feel that I will never reach his standard. I still have lots to learn, however, I would like to think that my work would encourage people to be creative and playful with their use of Utsuwa in their everyday life.
“Utsuwa (vessel) is clothes for food”
