One's capacity [1]

As a definition of a vessel, I thought that one “bottom” corresponds to one “mouth,” and they are connected. Based on that definition, they are trying to create an unknown “vessel” by combining porcelain parts entrusted with the role of the “mouth” and “bottom” of the vessel and knitted fabric (knitted using a technique called basketry coiling using thinly cut knitted fabric and PP rope) to connect them. Porcelain and cloth knitted fabrics contrast all of their characteristics and elements, such as material, texture, hard and soft, and whether they deform or not. By intricately intertwining two things that have nothing in common and are clearly contrasting, they create works that go beyond the presence or absence of simple uses, and pursue the fun of the vessel itself.
