Mutsumi Ohashi 26cm Ash Glaze Round Plate

Mutsumi Ohashi, who has a studio in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, creates works that strongly draw out the properties of clay.
The rough texture and the beauty of modern forms.
The charm of Ohashi lies in the coexistence of these two elements.

Ohashi uses both a wood-fired kiln, which she fires only a few times a year, and a kerosene kiln, which she uses daily, according to their purposes.
She creates her works by going back and forth between processes, such as using ash from the wood-fired kiln as ash glaze and then firing it in the kerosene kiln.

This time, she is also attempting to re-fire works that have been fired in the kerosene kiln in the wood-fired kiln.
Each piece goes back into the flames, circulating through the elements of earth, fire, and ash.

The powerfulness that evokes the energy of nature, and the quiet gaze that confronts the materials and processes.
We hope you can feel the current state of Mutsumi Ohashi's work.
