Tsujimura Yui
ca. 2005 · Stoneware with natural ash glaze · Asian Art
Tsujimura Yui used feldspar-rich clay from Shigaraki and Iga in this work. The artist takes inspiration from the techniques and aesthetics of the unglazed stoneware traditions of early medieval Sue ware. One of his trademarks is his elegant use of natural ash glaze. The green and blue streaks on this piece run horizontally because the vessel was fired on its side. Ash was blown on it to create an organic, almost abstract pattern.
