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\" (burying and firing) technique is a unique method that involves bisque firing, then glaze firing, and then re-firing in a wood-fired kiln by burying it in split wood.\u003cbr\u003eThis method has a very high chance of failure, but because it results in pottery with complex expressions, Haga is passionately dedicated to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hakuhaku\" (peeled white) is a new endeavor that uses white glazes, but includes a process of intentionally stripping off the applied glaze, deliberately bringing out a decayed-like 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 visible.\u003cbr\u003eThe glare is suppressed, and it is a work where the metallic texture and the black of the clay are well harmonized with the earth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaga demonstrates with extreme sincerity the inherent irreversibility of the act of making pottery.\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 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\".
