Walking in the large exhibition room at the Everson Museum of Art, Japanese ceramic artworks are arranged in different glass cases, hung on walls and lined along shelves. Panels on the history of Japanese ceramics art through many movements lead the audience through the “Floating Bridge” exhibition.
Jason Jose, an exhibition visitor, said the atmosphere feels like walking through history.
