THE SCULPTURAL NARRATIVE
“Alchemist-potter Tenshin Juba creates modern earthenware and stoneware in a highly rhythmic manner, letting the raw sourcing of his materials remain dictated by the natural cycles of his landscape. This striking quartet of Matte Black Jardinières balances pure kinetic gestures with intricate, low-tech surface treatments. To achieve their dense, saturated tones, organic materials like rice straws and chestnut husks are combined in the firing process to catalyze rich, inky-black finishes.
— This Matte Black Jardinière Set brings an elemental, texturized presence to modern collections. For more on the artist's studio practice, read the full story in the Chariots on Fire Journal.”
