YURIKO
BULLOCK
Yuriko’s wabi-sabi style, pinch bowl technique and unique eye for capturing magic in the kiln makes each of her pieces one-of-a-kind.
Tucked away on Orcas Island is multifaceted ceramic artist Yuriko Bullock. Her studio, hand-built by a dear friend, is nestled between a Melrose apple and Chojuro pear tree. Her wood-fired kiln, hand-built with 9 other local artist’s, is just up a gravel driveway adjacent to an airstream trailer, outdoor shower, and towering seabuckthorn plant. Yuriko’s studio and sprawling homestead feels intentional and unpredictable at the same time, exactly like her ceramics.
an artist on a little island in the Pacific Northwest
Yuriko’s aesthetic is rooted in her Japanese culture and it’s high appreciation of ceramics. Yuriko keeps her inspiration active by visiting famous pottery towns in Japan.
natural beauty for the everyday
Yuriko’s passion and connection to growing and preparing food, as well as her years of Ikebana and Sado training heavily influence the way she creates and interacts with ceramics.
Yuirko continues her natural hand-built style to her stunning glazes and rustic textures. She utilizes her wood-fired kiln for a long and slow process but also experiments in her electric kiln.
