Launch date: Friday, 1 May



KAIYU
The ceramic work “Ash-glazed bowl” by Shoji Kamoda, created using a natural glaze primarily derived from plant ash, is characterized by a glassy, lustrous deep green surface contrasted with the exposed texture of the clay body. This interplay has been translated into textile through pigment printing. The circular wheel marks that appear along the interior of the bowl are arranged with the intention that, when the garment is laid flat, they form a complete circle. The design is printed in its flattened state to align with the garment’s form. Three large screens are used in the printing process, with variations in pigment types to create depth and dimensionality within the pattern. The contrast between glossy and matte finishes further echoes the sheen of the ash glaze and the tactile quality of the raw clay surface.
