About the Item
Yasuhisa Kohyama shapes his asymmetrical forms using piano wire, creating distinctive rough surfaces. The clay with its feldspar nuggets creates a tactile quality rarely seen in contemporary work. No glaze is used, but the wood ash and placement in the kiln produces an extraordinary range of colors and shading on the surface.
The artist's masterful ceramics are inspired by ancient Shigaraki, Jomon and Yayoi from Japan. He played an important role in reviving the use of the traditional Japanese anagama wood-fired oven. He was the first potter in the region to build such a kiln since the Middle Ages. Using the distinctive Shigaraki clay and a wood-fired oven, he created modern, vigorous and new ceramic vessels and sculptures, but of timeless beauty.

Dimensions: 13"h x 10"w x 8"d ARTIST STATEMENT My work passionately reflects my Mexican cultural roots. The art forms appear and are created as stories in the round as I transform and mutate a magic fusion of colors, shapes and a way of life into them. I often use faces joined by zigzag or curved lines. Flower petals characteristically fashion the idea of dealing with one’s aura. Some of the vessel forms I use (the goddess series) are used to symbolically connect earth to women… a container used for nutrients of survival. My work also speaks of healing.
