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 evokes the beauty and harshness of nature, and a slightly human softness that is added to 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 then burying the work in split firewood and firing it again in a wood-fired kiln.\u003cbr\u003eThis method has a very high chance of failure, but it results in pottery with complex expressions, which Haga diligently pursues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hakuhaku\" (peeled white) is a new endeavor 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 food.\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, and it is a work where a metallic texture and the black of the earth are harmoniously blended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaga presents the inherent irreversibility of pottery with great sincerity.\u003cbr\u003eWhat lies there is not a simple contrast of destruction and rebirth, but an attitude of confronting \"irretrievability\" itself.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope you will enjoy Haga's diverse techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e■ Size: Diameter 15cm, Height 4.5cm\u003cbr\u003e■ Weight: Approximately 250g\u003cbr\u003e■ Microwave: ◯ \/ Dishwasher: △ \/ Oven: ×\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e* Mr. Haga's works value serendipity, so there are large individual differences.\u003cbr\u003eThe photos are generally of the same size, but each pattern and subtle size differs, so please consider them as an example.\u003cbr\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" has a stronger random nature than \"Hakuhaku.\" Please be aware of this in advance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e＜Minoru Haga＞\u003cbr\u003e1983 Born in Fuchu City, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003cbr\u003e2008 Graduated from Tajimi City Pottery Design and Technical Center, received Graduation Project Award\u003cbr\u003e2012 The 5th Contemporary Tea Ceramics Exhibition, 24th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Project, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 Selected for the 6th Contemporary Tea Ceramics Exhibition, 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Project\u003cbr\u003e2014 Built a wood-fired kiln in Sera Town, Sera District, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"芳賀稔","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51024611410205,"sku":"HMR-E4-046-c","price":6050.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-E4-046-c-8_fda7fe4d-81d6-458f-a8fe-b846e8e034d2.jpg?v=1774873986","url":"https:\/\/osakamaholo.pro\/en\/products\/hmr-e4-046-c","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
