Galaxy Glaze Mosaic Art 3 "Minerva's Owl"
Following on from last year, we are releasing some Galaxy Glaze Mosaic Art that we are still experimenting with! This time, it's an owl.
"The owl of Minerva departs at dusk." As the words of a former philosopher imply, something new is about to be born from the twilight of an era known as Tetsuaki Nakao, and from his research as he reflects on that era. It is my son's work that I hope will inspire such a birth.
The wooden frame and works that were made by simply attaching old wooden boards that were peeled off when repairing a leaking wall in a 70-year-old factory to a wooden frame left behind by my late grandfather are literally part of the history of Gyokuhogama. Unfortunately, before I knew it, it had become a nail sharpener for Ramses, and part of the wooden frame was damaged...
▼Mosaic art story
The pottery known as "Gingayu" is incredibly difficult to make. Even after knowing science, reading nature, and taking every precaution, it is still left to the fire in the end, and more than half of it breaks into pieces. This is even more so when it comes to the apprentices and sons. These pieces have been transformed into mosaic art by the artist's father-in-law. And once again, prototypes of Gingayu mosaic art are being created, making use of the large number of pieces that will be produced. This is a challenge to transform the Gingayu fragments into something new.
