奥泰我さんのガラスは、1300℃を超える熱のなかで生まれます。

ハチミツのように溶けたガラスが垂れないよう常に竿を回し続け、冷え固まる前に最低限の手数で一気に形づくる。

その途切れることのない回転とスピードから生み出されたフォルムは、初夏の光を透かす「水」のように涼やかで、凛とした佇まいを持っています。

「毎日使うもの。そばに置いておきたいもの。シンプルで美しいものを。」
奥さんはこういった思いのもと制作されております。

奥さんの作品はガラス自体の色味が美しく、光を通すと虹色に輝きます。
繊細なフォルムですが、程よく厚みや重さもあり、普段の生活に馴染みながら美しく彩ってくれる作品たちです。

This is a work by Taiga Oku, a glass artist active in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture.

His beautiful, transparent works, through which light passes, are created using blow working (blown glass). These vessels, crafted with a commitment to what constitutes a beautiful form, can truly be described as "dignified," possessing a presence that refines any space they inhabit.

Oku creates his works with the philosophy of "things to use every day, things to keep nearby, things that are simple and beautiful."

Oku's works are beautiful in the inherent color of the glass itself, and when light passes through them, they shimmer with a rainbow of colors. While their forms are delicate, they possess a moderate thickness and weight, making them works that beautifully adorn daily life while blending in seamlessly.
