Our Sculptors Exhibitions
White Conduit Projects will showcase an exhibition at Collect 2026, featuring the works of HIROKI an artist and restorer with 50 years of experience. The exhibition highlights Japanese restoration artistry, focusing on themes of beauty in imperfection, sustainability, and our connection to nature.
ln addition to Hiroki’s work, the exhibition presents collaborations with contemporary artists Rosa Nguyen, Daphne Wright, Jane Bustin, alongside pieces by master ceramicists Zengoro Eiraku and Tomimoto Kenkichi, a National Treasure. The emphasis is on collective storytelling through art rather than individual acclaim. The 50 years of knowledge in traditional restoration using natural materials does not simply repair a single object, but rather presents the possibility of it becoming contemporary art in itself, transcending the boundaries of art and creating a blended collaboration.
Rosa Nguyen will be joining Daphne Write, Jane Bustin and Hiroki at the booth talk to discuss their collaboration and the stories behind the work on Sunday 1 March at 2.30pm
