We are pleased to announce an exhibition by Takeshi Oomura, a potter based in Ukiha City, Fukuoka Prefecture. His works are characterized by their unique shapes and textures that resemble aged metal. This distinctive texture is achieved through a process of repeated coloring and firing. While the texture may appear inorganic at first glance, the playful forms imbue the pieces with a lively expression. The exhibition will feature a diverse range of items, including plates, bowls, cups, teapots, pouring vessels, and vases, with a focus on black-glazed and vibrantly colored pieces. We invite you to experience Oomura’s modern and sculptural works firsthand.
