About the Artwork
This is a creative flower vase born from my ongoing pursuit of scarlet expressions, featuring a dynamic, wave-like movement along the rim.
While following the lineage of my previous exhibition works, this piece incorporates new formal experiments in its shaping.

Techniques Used
Hagi ware
Hagi ware is a type of pottery predominantly made around the cities of Hagi, Nagato, and Yamaguchi in Yamaguchi prefecture. Vessels are made with Daido clay, Mitake clay, and Mishima clay. The resulting stoneware is rarely decorated with motifs, as the texture and qualities of the clay are key points of visual interest that appeal to tea ceremony practitioners.
