Artsmia's recent research focuses on the field of archaeology and art history, shedding light on ancient ceramic vessels from Asia. The study of black-figure neck amphorae from C. 540 BCE reveals intricacies in technique and design, while analysis of ding food vessels from the 11th-10th century BCE uncovers insights into early Chinese cultural practices. Artsmia's work also explores Netsuke carvings, including the iconic abalone fishergirl wrestling with an octopus and the fox priest netsuke by Yoshitada, providing new perspectives on 18th-century Japanese art. These contributions enrich our understanding of ancient traditions and their ongoing impact on contemporary culture.
