Description

He was born into a family with a long tradition of Bizen ware.
Under normal circumstances, he would have played a central role in the Bizen pottery industry.
However, at the root of his work lay his anger toward society at large.
He excelled at channeling destructive emotions into his work, creating pieces that were even grotesque.
He named his kiln "Shakuyo" and was particularly particular about achieving the appearance of red clay.
The kanji for "Shakuyou" means "the sun that burns everything."
