We are pleased to present a solo exhibition of Ryohei Yamamoto, a ceramic artist based in Arita, Saga Prefecture. Using local wood and clay, Yamamoto fires his work in a self-built clay kiln, now in its sixth year. Embracing natural variations, each piece carries a quiet vitality. Rooted in the traditions of early Imari and old Hizen ceramics, he creates vessels using diverse techniques such as white porcelain (hakuji), underglaze blue (sometsuke), and ash-glazed stoneware. Recently, he has explored the delicate boundary between white porcelain and underglaze blue, adding subtle depth to his work. His pieces, shaped by earth, flame, and time, gain character with use and quietly enrich everyday life. This exhibition features a wide range of his creations, including daily tableware, tea and sake vessels, and flower vases. We invite you to hold these works and feel the breath of the clay kiln.
