Soft orientation
φ17-19xh5cm Masaki KUSADA
Among many techniques of blown glass, Kusada consistently uses the "pinblow" technique. The reason is that it is a technique which can make a vessel by itself. He does not intervene by blowing into the glass, which is often employed. No tools are used to touch the surface of the glass. No patterns are added with colors or bubbles. The centrifugal force and gravity of turning glass wound around an iron rod, and the repeated actions of the artist who lends his hand to the turning. The slight expression at the moment when they overlap. The transparency of the slight melody that can be heard is beautiful.
