A painting experience in nature. Mr. Kengo Ukita of Ukita Kiln has a history of attending a design school in Tokyo after training at Tokuda Yasokichi Pottery. The pottery-making environment that he obtained after moving from the Komatsu Airport area is a source of playful inspiration. The natural and tranquil environment around the studio, the view of greenery that jumps out from the window of the work desk, and the occasional music session with friends in the gallery. The pop style of Mr. Ukita's works inspired by them has a familiarity and warmth that is somewhat different from the classic motifs associated with the word "Kutani ware". In the GEMBA program, under the guidance of Mr. Ukita, you can experience overglaze painting from sketching a rough sketch in the backyard. The overglaze painting experience, which starts with a sketch surrounded by greenery, is a unique and valuable experience. *For foreign nationals: Information on the day will be in Japanese only.
Sketch in the backyard surrounded by nature. You can use your own favorite illustration. You can overglaze with your favorite picture. The experience of being able to receive direct guidance from Mr. Ukita from sketching should be a unique and rare experience.
In addition to his own works, Mr. Ukita is good at copying "Kokutani". At Tokuda Yasokichi Pottery Studio, where he used to train, his copying technique was recognized early on, and he received "approval" from the master in about three years. Kokutani's brushwork is inherited in his pop style, and you can directly hear the fun of it.
Mr. Ukita has been engaged in music activities since he was studying design in Tokyo, and his love for music is reflected in every piece of work with musical instruments and jazz sessions as motifs. At the cafe and gallery, you can also appreciate the rhythmic works that are typical of Mr. Ukita.
