In 2010, he opened a studio in Sera-cho, close to his hometown of Fuchu City, to concentrate on his creative activities.\u003cbr\u003eHis works embody conflicting impressions simultaneously: a dynamic, inorganic impression that evokes the beauty and harshness of nature, yet also a slight human softness added to a simple form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" (burying and firing) is a unique technique that involves bisque firing → glaze firing → and then burying the piece in split firewood and refiring it in a wood-fired kiln.\u003cbr\u003eThis method has a very high chance of failure, but it produces ceramics with complex expressions, so Haga is dedicated to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hagihaku\" (peeled white) is a new endeavor using white glazes, but it includes a process of intentionally peeling off the applied glaze to create a weathered texture.\u003cbr\u003eThe price range is affordable, and the simple color tones enhance the food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Kurogin\" (black silver) is a silver technique where the rugged texture of the clay is subtly visible.\u003cbr\u003eThe glare is suppressed, creating a piece where a metallic texture and the black of the earth are harmoniously integrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaga presents the inherent irreversibility of pottery making with utmost sincerity.\u003cbr\u003eWhat lies there is not a simple contrast of destruction and regeneration, but an attitude of confronting \"irretrievability\" itself.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope you will enjoy Haga's diverse techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e■Size: Diameter 25cm Height 2cm\u003cbr\u003e■Weight: Approx. 900g\u003cbr\u003e■Microwave: ◯ \/ Dishwasher: △ \/ Oven: ×\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Minoru Haga's works value偶然性 (fortuitousness), so there are significant individual differences.\u003cbr\u003eWhile the photos show pieces of generally the same size, the patterns and precise sizes vary, so please consider them as examples.\u003cbr\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" has a stronger random quality than \"Hagihaku.\" 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, Graduation Project Award\u003cbr\u003e2012 24th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Event, 5th Contemporary Chato Exhibition, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Event, 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":51024610885917,"sku":"HMR-N5-002-a","price":12100.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-N5-002-a-2_cf9da5b3-183b-4302-8867-e9d0523a12f4.jpg?v=1773131515","url":"https:\/\/osakamaholo.pro\/en\/products\/hmr-n5-002-a","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
