He then worked as a potter while working at an automobile factory, but to devote himself to creative activities, he opened a studio in Sera Town, close to his hometown of Fuchu City, in 2010.\u003cbr\u003eHis works embody two opposing impressions simultaneously: a dynamic, inorganic impression that evokes 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, followed by burying the pieces in split wood and firing them again in a wood-fired kiln.\u003cbr\u003eThis method has a very high chance of failure, but because it results in pottery with complex expressions, Haga is passionately committed to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hakuhaku\" (peeled white) is a new endeavor that uses white glaze, 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 offers glimpses of the rough texture of the clay.\u003cbr\u003eThe glint is suppressed, and it is a work where a metallic texture harmonizes well with the black of the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaga demonstrates the inherent irreversibility of pottery making with extreme sincerity.\u003cbr\u003eWhat exists there is not a simple contrast between destruction and rebirth, but an attitude of confronting \"irretrievability\" itself.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope you will enjoy Haga's works, which utilize various techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e■ Size: Diameter 15cm Height 2cm\u003cbr\u003e■ Weight: Approximately 260g\u003cbr\u003e■ Microwave: ◯ \/ Dishwasher: △ \/ Oven: ×\u003cbr\u003e* Haga's works value serendipity, so there are significant individual differences.\u003cbr\u003eThe photos show pieces of roughly the same size, but the patterns and fine sizes of each piece differ, so please consider them as examples.\u003cbr\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" has a stronger random nature than \"Hakuhaku.\" Please be aware of this in advance.\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 Project, 5th Contemporary Tea Ceremony Exhibition, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 The 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Project, 6th Contemporary Tea Ceremony 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":51024614687005,"sku":"HMR-E4-018","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-E4-018-2_57cf59b8-86a8-4240-917e-78e9d876ae70.jpg?v=1774874332","url":"https:\/\/maholo.net\/en\/products\/hmr-e4-018","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
