Koichi Toyama uses his unique sensibility and techniques to create a timeless look from the texture of the wood he has cut.
The tray series, each with a different haturi look,
Soban, with its modern twelve-cornered shape and aged appearance,
and the Sumikiri-kaku tray variation, which is even more appealing as an everyday companion.
The gentle beige-grey colour is created by fine penetrations slightly tinted with acorns.
The soft green glaze is reminiscent of antiquities.
Takuji Hayashi's vessels have a warmth and simplicity in their effortless form.
Koichi Toyama's woodwork and Takuji Hayashi's ceramics.
Despite the differences in materials,
the two share a quietness behind their stout style and a presence that blends into the space as if it had always been there.
Please enjoy this exhibition of two artists whose comfortable reticence resonates with each other.
