Kodo Kiyooka stumbled into a good thing by chance. It happened that one day he was hungry and tired, and wanted to make a simple dish that wouldn't require much cleaning. A trained ceramicist, he thought to use an art piece he had made, as a combination pan-plate. The irony is that the object was a pan, heat resistant even, but in the tradition of the Duchampian readymade, created for a life of beautiful idleness. A frying pan by the Japanese artist Kodo Kiyooka, who prides himself on making art that is also functional. Putting the pan sculpture to use was a good decision.
