Hazakai no Katachi

Daisuke’s long, narrow-necked ceramics relate to and are influenced by the traditional pot, the artist choosing to throw on the potter’s wheel as a way to capture the sense of fluid movement and control that defines the ceramicist’s practice — and ascertain a relationship between the modes of art and container. The flute-like body of ‘Hazakai no Katachi’ (‘Receptacle of Boundary’) mirrors the delicate orchid, translating the flower to a symmetrical idolisation in pure white clay.
