Listening to the soil
NagaoDaisuke Ina in Shinshu.
In that quiet land
Miyata Haruka is alone
I continue to make pottery while facing the clay.
Making tableware
Not just from buying soil,
It starts when you enter the mountains.
With a small shovel
The carefully excavated raw soil
Stone particles and grass roots mixed in
It can also be difficult to handle.
However, it is precisely this "imperfection" that
Through Miyata's hands
To create beautiful vessels
It grows.
"Instead of trying to mold it the way you want, you let the clay take the shape it wants to take."
As the words say
The finished dish has
There's a rhythm that's like natural breathing
It is staying there.
Glazes are also made by burning plants and creating ash.
Ash glaze that he mixed himself.
For all processes
There is a lot of effort, time and quietness.
Among them, this "bowl"
A dish that will look great on your summer table.
Chilled boiled summer vegetables
Fruit with ice, somen noodles and edamame beans.
Just serve it
It's like the ingredients start to breathe.
Roughness and softness.
Simplicity and quiet elegance.
The strength of the earth
The delicacy of the maker blends together
This vessel is born.
Feel it in the palm of your hand
A slightly rough texture
A faint scene visible deep within the glaze.
The more I squint my eyes
Its appeal deepens.
In the midst of busy days
Just stop for a moment
Something you'll want to get your hands on.
That
These are dishes by Miyata Haruka.
Mr. Miyata's work is also available at the store.
The vessels
From Friday, July 18th
He is planning to hold his second solo exhibition.
This time too, from many vessels
Miyata-san's unique objects
Many will be exhibited.
To many people
A solo exhibition you should see
It looks like it will be.
