{"product_id":"p3110","title":"Bizen rectangular plate","description":"This Bizen rectangular dish was created by Sho Fujita, an artist who studies various forms of art and fuses them within himself to create his own unique expressions. It is part of his \"Stratum Bizen\" series, featuring a design that looks as if it were hollowed out as a cylinder directly from the earth, much like a geological core sample. As the name suggests, the layers of soil composition create a marbled coloration, and by meticulously polishing the surface to refine its texture, he has achieved a balance between aesthetic beauty and ease of use. The remaining areas feature a somewhat bold kiln transformation (yohen), with the design intentionally kept rugged (chigiri-te) to create a contrast in both texture and style with the surface. (Please note: due to the concept of Stratum Bizen, large stone bursts are a feature of this work.)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/blog\/2014\/06\/ryorinin.html\"\u003eView blog post about this work\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\n23.4cm x 12.7cm x 4.2cm height\n\nSho Fujita was born in Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture in 1978.
