Fumio Kawabata, a former graphic designer born in Yokohama, creates works using the "Shizen-nerikomi" technique (carefully kneading clay collected from the same place into string-like shapes and carefully shaping by hand so as not to destroy the clay's natural appearance) that expresses the inherent vitality of Bizen clay. The marble-like brown spots that appear on the white clay surface represent the living iron contained in the original clay... He also creates heavy works using an anagama kiln that is reminiscent of old Bizen.
