I am a Chawan Void Sculpture. Obi-chawan-kenobi, may the force be with you.

Curator's Notes

Of all the pieces involved in traditional tea ceremony, the chawan plays the principal role. Tea Master and ceramicist Masanobu Ando pays tribute to this sacred object with this sculpture, which both is and is not a chawan. Rather, it represents the space held by a chawan - the void itself.  Individual coils of clay varying in shape and size all converge in the powerful form of a single object. The sculpture trancends established concepts of beauty or ugliness and meditating on its form is calming, like having a cup of tea. A stunning accent and interesting object to display on your shelf.

Origin

Each of Yuta Segawa's miniature vases are hand thrown on the wheel and finished with their own unique glaze. Yuta often finishes the shaping of the smaller vases with chopsticks, resulting in their elegant and delicate nature. These miniature vases are impactful both as individual pieces and when displayed in a group.

Dimensions: H 5.5cm x W7cm

As all products are handmade sizes and colour may vary slightly.

Yuta Segawa studied Industrial, Interior and Craft Design at Musashino Art University in Tokyo, before completing an internship at The Pottery Work Shop in Jingdezhen, China, and an MA at Camberwell College of Arts in London. He specialises in producing miniature pots, which are hand-thrown and hand-finished, using more than a thousand specially developed glazes which encompass the entire colour spectrum. Positioning them in large groups, to magical effect, or as individual pieces that sit in the palm of the hand, his work plays with the imagination. He works with various clays such as porcelain, terracotta and stoneware, experimenting with texture, and has had solo exhibitions in London, The Netherlands, Dubai, Tokyo and China.

Unique, carefully curated hand crafted ceramics, wood, clothing, stoneware. Contemporary pure organic shibumi aesthetic and design. British, Japanese artists.
