Working with glass has enabled her to express her concept of home.<\/p>\n<p>Using diamond tips to etch into a glass surface, Kayo depicts her quest for familiar ground from the East to the West by creating patterns of trees onto the blown-glass bowls and vases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSanctuary is the place where our minds go to comfort ourselves when we feel happy, delighted or sad\u201d Yokoyama said. \u201cMy sanctuary is a vast landscape with trees, I belong and I am safe&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Red Hill Gallery Director, Margaret Campbell-Ryder, believes Kayo\u2019s style is so distinctly different from other glass artists.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe inspiration behind Kayo\u2019s works present a story open to the imagination\u201d Campbell-Ryder said. \u201cThe fragile and soft colours that appear in many of the glass pieces offer another dimension to Kayo\u2019s exclusive designs creating beautiful works of art\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artchat.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Kayo03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2989\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artchat.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Kayo03.jpg\" alt=\"Kayo Yokoyama\" width=\"760\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.artchat.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Kayo03.jpg 760w, https:\/\/www.artchat.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Kayo03-300x140.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/redhillgallery.com.au\/KayoYokoyama2014.html\" target=\"_blank\">The exhibition will conclude at the end of July.<em> Click HERE<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a9\u00a0\u00a0<a title=\"Red Hill Gallery\" href=\"http:\/\/www.redhillgallery.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">Red Hill Gallery<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/redhillgallery.com.au\/KayoYokoyama2014.html\" target=\"_blank\"><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"al2fb_like_button\"><div id=\"fb-root\"><\/div><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n(function(d, s, id) {\n  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n  js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=499790883388518\";\n  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n}(document, \"script\", \"facebook-jssdk\"));\n<\/script>\n<fb:like href=\"https:\/\/www.artchat.com.au\/?p=2986\" send=\"true\" layout=\"button_count\" show_faces=\"true\" share=\"false\" width=\"150\" action=\"recommend\" font=\"arial\" colorscheme=\"light\" ref=\"AL2FB\"><\/fb:like><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Share&#8220;Sanctuary is the place where ourminds go to comfort ourselves when we feel happy, delighted or sad.
