釉母茶碗茶具組|分享的情物,包容的器物
「分茶法」源自早期茶農製茶後的習慣,邀請茶友試茶共享品茗的內蘊,在簡約之中體現誠意與情誼,在無言中品味茶湯的精神世界。這件柴燒大茶碗,重新擴展「分茶/分享」的精神,以器為媒,承載茶湯與人情。
作品採超高溫柴燒1452℃而成,火與土共同凝結呈現自然釉色的豐富流動與溫潤質地。依循「臺灣茶碗茶席」的茶席儀軌,我以大碗沖泡後分茶予賓客,讓品茗過程不僅止於味覺,更延伸為一場共鳴與心靈的交流——從觀色、聞香、啜飲,到心意的流轉。
「大碗分茶」不僅是喝茶的方法,更是一種重拾分享本質、重新連結人與人的方式。讓茶,成為交流的起點;讓器,成為包容情感的大器。
Mother Glaze Tea Set | A token of sharing, a vessel of embracement
The “Communal Chawan Service” originated from a tea farmer tradition where they would invite friends after tea production for a tasting of the tea. Sincerity and friendship is on display in this simple gesture as the friends savor the spiritual essence of tea. This large, wood-fired chawan reintroduces the spirit of sharing by passing along tea and kindness alike.
The piece is wood-fired at the ultra-high temperature of 1452℃. Fire and earth converge, giving rise to the vibrant flow and tender texture of natural glaze. Following the Taiwan Chawan Tea Ceremony Rituals, I brew the tea in the large communal chawan, then serve it in small portions to the guests. The ritual expands the tasting process beyond the sense of taste to become a dialogue of the heart and soul - from appreciating the appearance, smelling the fragrance, sipping the tea, to a circulation of well intentions.
The communal tea service is not only a way to drink tea, it guides to a path that revisits what it means to share and for people to establish connections between one another. Let the tea be the start of dialogue; Let the vessel be one that embraces emotions.
