Afterwards, he worked as a potter while working at a car factory, but in 2010, he opened a studio in Sera Town, close to his hometown of Fuchu City, to concentrate on his creative activities.\u003cbr\u003eHis works simultaneously encompass two opposing impressions: a dynamic, inorganic impression that conveys the beauty and harshness of nature, and a slightly human softness that is added to simple forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \"umeyaki\" (buried firing) technique is a unique method that involves bisque firing, then glaze firing, and then re-firing in a wood-fired kiln by burying the pieces in firewood.\u003cbr\u003eIt is a technique with a very high possibility of failure, but because it results in pottery with complex expressions, Mr. Haga is passionately dedicated to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hakuhaku\" (peeled white) is a new attempt that uses white glazes but intentionally includes a process of applying and then peeling off the glaze, deliberately bringing out a decayed texture.\u003cbr\u003eThe price range is affordable, and the simple color tone enhances the dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Kurogin\" (black silver) is a silver technique where the rough texture of the clay is visible.\u003cbr\u003eThe glare is suppressed, and it is a work where a metallic texture and the black of the earth are harmoniously integrated with the clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMr. Haga presents the inherent irreversibility of pottery with extreme sincerity.\u003cbr\u003eWhat is there is not a simple contrast of destruction and rebirth, but an attitude of confronting \"irretrievability\" itself.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope you will enjoy Mr. Haga, who skillfully uses various techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e■ Size: Diameter 19cm, Height 1cm\u003cbr\u003e■ Weight: Approximately 420g\u003cbr\u003e■ Microwave: ◯ \/ Dishwasher: △ \/ Oven: ×\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Mr. Haga's works embrace serendipity, so there is significant individual variation.\u003cbr\u003eThe photos show generally similar sizes, but the patterns and fine details vary for each piece, so please consider them as examples.\u003cbr\u003e\"Umeyaki\" has a stronger random nature than \"Hakuhaku.\" Please be aware of this in advance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cMinoru Haga\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1983 Born in Fuchu City, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003cbr\u003e2008 Completed Tajimi City Pottery Design and Research Institute, Graduation Project Award\u003cbr\u003e2012 24th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Project, 5th Contemporary Tea Pottery Exhibition, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Project, 6th Contemporary Tea Pottery Exhibition, Selected\u003cbr\u003e2014 Built a wood-fired kiln in Sera-gun, Sera-cho, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"芳賀稔","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51024614752541,"sku":"HMR-E4-010","price":4400.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-E4-010-2_45765871-5e29-4a6a-945f-eedcfa371c7b.jpg?v=1774874342","url":"https:\/\/osakamaholo.pro\/en\/products\/hmr-e4-010","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
