Jū Cross Plate (OUT OF STOCK)

Ryuji Mitani

• Introduction

  I am a Jū Cross Plate. I'm the Japanese character for '10' so naturally that makes me a 10 outta 10 on the plate scale.

   

• Curator's Notes 

   

  In 2010, Ryuji Mitani transformed an old tobacco shop into a gallery. He found an antique metal stencil that read “10cm”, and aptly named the small space after it. The cross character for “10” (Jū) in Japanese, quickly became the artisan’s signature motif.

   

  Jū Cross Plate was curated by Stevenson Aung
