"Night Shadows" by Yasushi Fujihira is a poetic piece that captures the beauty of the silence of the night and the light shining in the darkness in a single vessel. The deep black, as if painted on a jet-black canvas, and the glaze that evokes the faint glow of moonlight and the twinkling of stars invite the viewer into a world of night.
The beauty of jet black reflecting the stillness of the night
As its name suggests, "Night Shadow" is characterized by its deep black, as if reflecting the shadows of the night. Moonlight, painted with a hazy brushstroke, appears faintly on this jet-black surface. The subtle sheen that appears depending on how the light hits it is reminiscent of a night sky dotted with stars, evoking a quiet emotion in the viewer. The unique texture of the glaze also evokes the moist air of the night and the whispering of the wind, as if capturing the beauty of a moment in the night within the vessel. Its appearance evokes tranquil scenes found in nature, calming the soul.
A fantastical world created by the harmony of shadow and light
When you touch the piece, the harmony between the depth of the shadows and the light hidden within them envelops you in a mysterious sensation. The smoothly curved form resembles the ground illuminated by moonlight, and the intricate patterns painted on it evoke the shadows cast by tree leaves and the quiet night scenery. The deep hues created by the "Yokage" glaze take on different expressions depending on the time and angle. The faint glow of blue and silver that emerges from the jet black evokes the light of stars in the night sky or the twinkling of distant street lamps, and each viewing brings new discoveries.
A form that evokes the poetic atmosphere of the night
The hand-twisted "Yokage" has an organic form that seems to mirror the shadows created in nature. Its soft bulges and curves evoke the stillness of the night sky. Its smooth, comfortable form gently stimulates the senses of the user, and while maintaining its practicality as a vessel, it also exudes presence as a decorative work of art. This piece, which appears to be the exact shape of a night shadow, will make a strong impression even in a quiet space.
The beauty and flow of time that resides in nature
The appeal of "Yokage" lies in the way that the beauty of nature has been captured and captured in a vase. Its deep, jet-black color evokes the stillness and mystery of night, as if a momentary scene has been given eternal form. The subtle changes and depths that appear on the surface over time will be further nurtured in the user's life. This will further enrich the story of the vase, as if cherishing the fleeting moment of night.
