OBJET
Wakusei — literally “wandering star”, the Japanese word for planet — evokes the movement of objects of the cosmos. From his atelier in Japan’s lush hillsides, Tenshin Juba works in rhythm with nature, creating works with natural ash-glaze, clay and stone. Each object embodies the tension between earth and sky, feeling both ancient and newly discovered. From his hands to yours, let the conversation begin.
Story of Alchemy:
The wood firing process, (lasting approximately 7 days) and reaching intense temperatures of up to 2336°F (1280°C), reveals a spectrum of textures and colors.
This includes glassy pools of mint blue-green, crackle off-white, high-polish metallics in inky black, platinum and nude, as well as the rugged appearance of rocks pierced through the surfaces, achieved through the ichi-haze “stone-burst” technique.
