Midori Uchida

The vessels she creates are fascinating, with mystical coincidental coloration from firing in the kiln. The curves of each vessel are meticulously formed through hand building, without using an electric wheel. The unglazed yakishime ware is beautifully burnished, giving her works a delicate earthen touch that feels as soft as a woman’s skin.
