【破格】ー 師を越えるための歪み、織部の咆哮 ー
師・利休の「静止した美」を越えるため、古田織部は茶室に「動」と「笑み」を叩きつけました。
師が愛した丸い茶碗を、あえて叩き潰して歪ませる「沓形（くつがた）」の衝撃。
左右非対称、鮮烈な緑釉、前衛的な文様。
伝統を破壊し、その瓦礫の上に新たな遊びを構築する。
織部忌に捧げるこの一皿は、美濃焼が最も過激で、最も自由だった時代の記憶です。

【 The Unprecedented 】ー The distortion to surpass the master—the roar of Oribe ー
To break beyond the "static beauty" of his master, Sen no Rikyu, Furuta Oribe thrust "motion" and "wit" into the tea room.
In a shocking act of defiance, he deliberately crushed and distorted the perfectly round tea bowls loved by his master, creating the irregular Kutsugata (clog-shaped) form.
Asymmetry, vivid green glazes, and avant-garde patterns.
He demolished tradition to build a new playground upon its ruins.
Dedicated to Oribe-ki (the anniversary of his death), this plate stands as a living memory of the era when Mino ware was at its most radical, and its most radically free.
