概要
和歌山県天野にて作陶される森岡由利子さんの展覧会を開催いたします。
焼〆や土器の制作を経て、現在は薪窯焼成による白磁を主として制作される森岡さん。1982年より高野山麓の天野の地にて白磁制作を始め、韓国の窯場を訪れて陶芸を学んだ経験を背景に、李朝白磁への思いを重ねながら、その表現を深めてこられました。素焼きをせず素地に直接釉薬を掛ける「生掛け」の技法で焼き上げられる白磁は、焼成の揺らぎや釉薬の縮れがそのまま器の景色となり、使うほどに表情を変えていきます。いわゆる磁器の白とは異なり、土の気配をどこかに残した白磁は、使い込むことで少しずつ育っていく器でもあります。高野山麓の豊かで厳しい自然の中での暮らしから生まれる作品には、どこか包み込むようなおおらかさと、懐の深さが感じられます。本展では、皿や鉢などの日常使いの器をはじめ、陽刻や面取りの花入れ 、様々な染付なども出展いただきます。どうぞご高覧くださいませ。
We are pleased to present an exhibition of works by Yuriko Morioka, a ceramic artist based in Amano, Wakayama Prefecture.
Having worked through phases of creating unglazed, high-fired ceramics and earthenware, Morioka now focuses primarily on white porcelain fired in a wood kiln. Since 1982, she has been producing white porcelain in Amano, at the foot of Mount Koya. Drawing on her experiences studying ceramics at kiln sites in Korea, she has deepened her practice while reflecting on the aesthetics of Joseon Dynasty white porcelain.
Her white porcelain is fired using a technique known as namagake, in which glaze is applied directly onto the unfired clay without a preliminary bisque firing. This process allows the natural variations of the kiln—such as fluctuations in firing and the subtle crawling of the glaze—to become integral to the surface of each piece. With use, the vessels gradually develop richer expressions.
Unlike the pure, uniform white often associated with porcelain, Morioka’s works retain a quiet trace of the clay itself. They are vessels that continue to mature and evolve over time through use.
Created amid the abundant yet often harsh natural environment at the foot of Mount Koya, her works embody a gentle generosity and a profound sense of depth that seems to envelop the viewer.
This exhibition will feature a range of everyday tableware, including plates and bowls, as well as flower vessels with relief carving and faceted surfaces, along with various pieces decorated in underglaze blue.
We warmly invite you to view the exhibition.
