Pottery work
Ceramics are Lisa Larson's life work.
From the experience of enrolling in Gustavsberg of the Golden Age, you can create works that are based on mass production. On the other hand, there are many complete works (Unique Pieces) with a completely free idea. It looks like they can freely go through commercials and non -commercials, but they have no distinction or discrimination at all. These two sides make her a special writer.

 

character
"Mikey", born from the first picture book "Baby Number Book" published in Japan, has become an opportunity for Lisa Larson as a pottery writer to enter a new area. Lisa as a pottery writer and Lisa as a character writer, mass -produced work, non -mass -produced work, quiet life and vigorous creative activities, her diversity are also demonstrated here. In the 2D design, there are many collaborations with her daughter Johanna, and the two generations are mixed, and Japan and Sweden are mixed.
