To dedicate himself to his creative activities, he opened a studio in Sera Town in 2010, which is close to his hometown of Fuchu City.\u003cbr\u003eHis works simultaneously encompass two opposing impressions: a dynamic, inorganic impression that conveys the beauty and harshness of nature, and a slight human softness 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 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, incorporating a process of intentionally applying and then peeling off the glaze to create a deliberately decayed texture.\u003cbr\u003eThe price range is accessible, and the simple color tones enhance 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 subdued, and the work achieves a good harmony between a metallic texture and the black of the clay.\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 8cm, Height 10cm, Mouth diameter 3.5cm\u003cbr\u003e■Weight: Approx. 200g\u003cbr\u003e■Microwave: × \/ Dishwasher: × \/ Oven: ×\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Haga's works value serendipity, so there is significant individual variation.\u003cbr\u003eThe photos show pieces of roughly the same size, but each piece has different patterns and subtle size variations, so please consider them as examples.\u003cbr\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" has a stronger random quality than \"Hakuhaku.\" Please be aware of this beforehand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e＜Minoru Haga＞\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 Project, 5th Contemporary Chato Exhibition, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 The 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Project, 6th Contemporary Chato 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":51024611115293,"sku":"HMR-E4-073-d","price":8800.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-E4-073-d-2_7f5e7a9a-f8ae-42c8-8e2e-b00523dac442.jpg?v=1773131527","url":"https:\/\/osakamaholo.pro\/en\/products\/hmr-e4-073-d","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
