Shigeo Shiga born in 1928 was a Japanese potter who studied

and worked in Japan before arriving in Australia in 1966 at the invitation of Les

Blakebrough to work at the Sturt Workshop in Mittagong, and then at the Talofa

Workshop in Sydney. He had a profound and lasting impact on the development of

Australian stoneware pottery. Following his time at Sturt, Shiga moved to

Sydney where he was employed by Peter Rushforth as a part-time teacher at the

National Art school. He also assisted Bernard Sahm in building his studio and

kiln and in 1972 established his own studio and kilns in Terry hills. In 1979

he returned to live in Tokyo but continued to hold occasional exhibitions in

Australia, and in 2009 returned to live back in Sydney. Shiga's works are held

by the National Gallery of Australia, the Art Gallery of NSW, the Powerhouse

Shigeo Shiga died in February 2011.
