We are pleased to announce the solo exhibition by Kutani ware artist Yukifumi Tada, based in Kanazawa City. This exhibition will feature approximately 70-80 pieces, including large vases, pots, tea bowls, sake caps, cup and saucers, free cups, and tableware.As his first solo exhibition at Enishira, we hope you will take this opportunity to visit the exhibition.

While cherishing Kutani’s materials and techniques, he utilizes the coarse-grained, slightly grayish Kutani clay, shaping it through various methods like wheel-throwing and hand-coiling.Through multiple firings of overglaze decoration, I achieve soft textures and nuanced intermediate colors. I also create expressions where parts or entire surfaces are covered in metallic finishes, achieved by firing with different materials and temperature zones. Consciously dressing vessels in original geometric patterns, I use the character for “Monyo” (紋様) in titles rather than “Monyo” (文様). While honoring the techniques of predecessors, I strive for progress in colored porcelain production. I would like to invite you to experience vessels that bring tradition into the modern era.
