Description

Mamoru Taku is a potter and researcher.
Various clays from Okayama Prefecture are collected and test-fired.
He researches the various chemical reactions between clay and fire that occur when Bizen ware is fired.
He told me that Hidasuki is his primary theme.
Hidasuki pieces in a variety of colors were displayed in his workshop.
Large amounts of iron and other substances gush across the beige clay surface.
Several types of clay are mixed together, and the different clays are used to create marbled patterns.
The wonderful Hidasuki is comparable to antique Bizen ware.
This guinomi was fired in October 2024.
