He then worked at an automobile factory while pursuing his career as a potter, but in 2010, he opened his studio in Sera Town, close to his hometown of Fuchu City, to dedicate himself to his creative activities.\u003cbr\u003eHis works simultaneously encompass two contrasting impressions: a dynamic, inorganic feel that conveys the beauty and harshness of nature, and a subtle human softness that complements the simple forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \"ume-yaki\" (buried firing) technique is a unique method that involves bisque firing, then glazing and main firing, and finally burying the piece in split wood and refiring it in a wood-fired kiln.\u003cbr\u003eAlthough this technique has a very high chance of failure, it results in pottery with complex expressions, which Haga diligently pursues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hakuhaku\" (peeled white) is a new endeavor using white glazes, but it involves intentionally peeling off the glaze after application to create a deliberately decayed texture.\u003cbr\u003eThe price range is accessible, and the simple color tones enhance the food served on them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Kurogin\" (black silver) is a silver technique that reveals the rough texture of the clay.\u003cbr\u003eThe glare is suppressed, creating a work where a metallic texture and the black of the clay harmonize well with the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaga demonstrates a profound honesty regarding the inherent irreversibility of the act of pottery.\u003cbr\u003eWhat lies there is not a simple contrast of destruction and rebirth, but an attitude of confronting \"irretrievability\" itself.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope you enjoy Haga's mastery of various techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e■ Size: Diameter 25 cm, Height 2 cm\u003cbr\u003e■ Weight: Approximately 880 g\u003cbr\u003e■ Microwave: × \/ Dishwasher: × \/ Oven: ×\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Haga's works prioritize serendipity, so there are significant individual differences.\u003cbr\u003eThe photos are generally of the same size, but each piece has different patterns and subtle variations in size, so please consider them as examples.\u003cbr\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" has a stronger random nature than \"Hakuhaku.\" Please be aware of this beforehand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026lt;Minoru Haga\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003e1983 Born in Fuchu City, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003cbr\u003e2008 Completed Tajimi City Pottery Design and Technical Center, received Graduation Project Award\u003cbr\u003e2012 The 24th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Event, 5th Contemporary Tea Ceremony Pottery Exhibition, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 The 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Event, 6th Contemporary Tea Ceremony Pottery Exhibition, Selected\u003cbr\u003e2014 Built a wood-fired kiln in Sera-cho, Sera-gun, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"芳賀稔","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51024612098333,"sku":"HMR-E4-028-c","price":12100.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-E4-028-c-2_5722b95e-b958-4618-9b93-26668fb05970.jpg?v=1774874123","url":"https:\/\/osakamaholo.pro\/en\/products\/hmr-e4-028-c","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
