WHO is hardass?
HARDASS IS RUN BY ME, CHIERI HIGA. I'M An ARTIST BASED IN AMSTERDAM. I FIRST GOT INTRODUCED TO THE WORLD OF OLD-STYLE POTTERY BY MY GREAT-UNCLE IN OKINAWA. over time, I'VE EVOLVED MY CERAMICS PRACTICE to something more suited to an urban studio. i love bdsm and the way that it brings more dimension to my world!
What DOes hardass do?
What DOes
hardass do?
HARDASS CREATES CERAMICS, ZINES, PIECES+PRODUCTS, AND OTHER FUN STUFF, ALL MADE OR CURATED BY CHIERI! KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR HARDASS AT YOUR LOCAL ART MARKETS!
I AM ALSO WORKING ON A SERIES OF POP-UP WORKSHOPS IN AND AROUND AMSTERDAM, SO STAY TUNED THROUGH THE NEWSLETTER and FOLLOW @HARDASS_CERAMICS ON INSTA <3
Why DO we DO it?
kink and bdsm are SUBCULTUREs FULL OF ALL SORTS OF DIVERSITY, BUT SO MUCH OF THAT DIVERSITY ONLY UNEARTHS ITSELF WHEN YOU DIVE IN AND START TO FIND COMMUNITY. i want to fill my corner of the internet with expressions of the joy and tenderness and connection that i have discovered in THIS WORLD—THE STUFF THAT I FIND IS MISSING in mainstream imagery. IF YOU VIBE WITH MY WORK, WE'RE PART OF THIS COMMUNITY TOGETHER!
