DETAIL
Creating a chawan is a unique experience, I can say mystical. Often as I model its shape with
my hands, I close my eyes to perceive the energy that a small lump of clay transmits to me. It
is different every time because my energy and the spirit with which I model it, are different.
I imagine that this feeling will also be perceived by the viewer who will then use it. Because
chawan is sharing, it is pure connection between those who create it and those who will then
use it.

創作茶碗是一種獨特、甚至可以說神秘的體驗。我常常在用手塑形時將眼睛閉上,感受那一
小塊陶土傳遞到我身上的能量。這個能量每一次做陶時都有所不同,因 我自己身上在塑形時
所帶的能量與精神每一次都不同。我想,這個感覺應該也會被看到茶碗的人,也是之後的使
用者感受到吧。因為茶碗會分享,它是創作者與使用者之間最純粹的連結。
