ORIBE EN MOUVEMENT

Last week I put up a blog post of an exhibited Oribe vase by Suzuki Satoru and as promised I put together a short video slideshow of the pot. Being a fan of Oribe in general, I really like how the glaze was used on this pot and how it accentuates the movement in the piece created through the use of this bold texture. The Oribe runs a wide array of thickness and color and creates wonderful visual accents literally from top to bottom showing Suzuki's intimate knowledge of his glazes. I hope the video slideshow helps fill out the scale, volume and presence of the pot which was enjoyable to have around to study and admire.
