Kimiyo Mishima (born 1932) is a contemporary Japanese artist, best known for creating highly realistic versions of "breakable printed matter"[1] in ceramic such as newspapers, comic books and boxes out of clay. Mishima began her artistic career as a painter in the early 1960s, then started working in ceramics in 1971.[2] At this time, she began to use the silk screen technique to print newspaper and ad poster images onto clay.[2] Her use of manufactured objects shows parallels with the works of Claes Oldenburg and Andy Warhol, as well as postwar Japanese collectives Gutai and Dokuritsu Art Association.[3]
