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。

These are works by Taiga Oku, a glass artist working in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture.

His beautiful, transparent works, through which light passes, are created using blow work (blown glass).
His vessels, crafted with a meticulous focus on what constitutes a beautiful form, truly embody the word "rin" (dignified and austere), possessing a presence that tightens a space just by being there.

"Things to use every day. Things to keep close by. Things that are simple and beautiful."
Oku-san creates his works with these thoughts in mind.

Oku-san's works have a beautiful inherent glass color that shines with a rainbow hue when light passes through.
While their form is delicate, they have a moderate thickness and weight, making them works that blend beautifully into everyday life.
