Matsubara Ryoma
He studied in Imari City, Saga Prefecture, and built a kiln in Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture. In 2014, he moved to his hometown of Usa, Oita. While creating mainly kohiki, which is a deep white with black spots, he has also recently taught himself to make slipware. The unique distortion of the clay, called "mud-sho," is also a characteristic of his work. While being so naturalistic that they fit in easily at the dining table, they have a powerful expression and presence, and the more you use them, the more you will be captivated by his vessels.
