Introduction of participating potters/

The Kozatoko area is located at the end of the road that turns south along the Amakusa Saikai coast and turns into the sea. "Amakusa Karatsu Township Kame Kiln" is built to overlook the calm seaside crowded with people enjoying diving and kayaking. Until now, it has been known as "Amakusa Karatsu Juro Kiln", but from this autumn, it has returned to its former name "Amakusa Karatsu Township Kame Kiln".

In the exhibition room, there are vessels that reflect the individuality of each couple. Her husband, Kameyama Township, Training in Karatsu, which is famous for Karatsu ware, and his wife, Kameyama Sanae, studied ceramics at the Ceramics College in Arita. Thereare, even in the same Saga prefecture, the pottery of Karatsu and Arita is "earth or stone" or "pottery or porcelain", and there is a big difference in the ingredients and characteristics.

Mr. Township's works are attractive for their captivating shapes and calm patterns of nature woven by earth and glaze. The lines drawn on the vessels, reminiscent of the classics peculiar to Karatsu ware, are infused with the "aesthetics of subtraction". Sanae, on the other hand, uses a blue pigment called gosu to create a modern and expressive painting by dyeing before glazing. There is a picture with a warm Traditional Japanese straw raincoat that makes your mouth smile involuntarily.

Two vessels that use opposite ingredients and have their own styles. Ingredients are all available in Amakusa. The exhibition room is lined with vessels nurtured by Amakusa's Nature, and there is a strangely rich harmony. Please pick it up and Please enjoy its world.
