About the Artwork

The small dot patterns made from kiln mutation express stars shining in the sky at night.
I used a vertical ridge line in my artwork for the first time to create a sense of tension.
This was my first piece to be selected for the Japan Traditional Kōgei Exhibition.

Klin effects

Kiln effects (yōhen) is a term that describes a wide variety of spontaneous expressions produced by the interaction of the kiln atmosphere and the surface of the vessel during firing, including oxidation and reduction effects. The cracks, flashing patterns, and natural ash glaze effects on unglazed wares such as Bizen and Shigaraki are famous examples of kiln effects.
