Flowers, in the work of Mirit Weinstock, are never purely decorative — they become carriers of memory, gesture, and emotional presence.
Based in Paris after several years living and working in Japan, she develops a multidisciplinary practice situated between Ikebana, ceramics, jewelry, and paper work. Natural materials, porcelain, metal, and organic elements converge within sculptural compositions that remain delicate yet deeply constructed.
Her time in Japan profoundly shaped her approach. Trained in Ikebana at the Ikenobo school in Tokyo, and later working through ceramic residencies in Shigaraki and Arita, she developed a language where Japanese craft traditions are reinterpreted through a contemporary sensibility.
Porcelain vessels become meeting points between floral arrangement and sculpture; kenzan structures are transformed into autonomous forms; flowers coated in gold or copper preserve traces of fragility and impermanence.
Rather than fixing nature, her work lingers within its transitory state. Each piece unfolds as an intimate composition — where craftsmanship, ritual, and emotion remain inseparable.
