I create pottery that makes the most of Shigaraki clay's texture, resulting in dynamic forms that are unforgettable once seen. My goal is to make cool-looking dishes for use when dining with friends. They are characterized by a deep, mysterious blue, where the blue glaze catches the light to create delicate gradations, spreading a beauty that resembles a natural lake or sky captured within the piece. These dishes offer both practicality and beauty, meant to be admired and used.

About this Work
This is a striking octagonal plate featuring sharp yet delicate "pointed" ridges. It combines Fujiwara Jun's characteristic structural tension with organic softness within its well-proportioned form.
The surface is adorned with three-dimensional decoration created using the "ittchin" (slip trailing) technique, conveying a warmth that feels as if the artist's hand movements are preserved.
It is a beautiful piece where contrasting elements such as straight and curved lines, and sharpness and gentleness, are harmoniously balanced.
