10th Yasuhiro Kondo Exhibition

Last year, I finally built a wood-fired kiln, and everything seemed to be going well ... But then it was a battle with nature, days of searching, and the beginning of the challenges of the path of pottery. The pottery that has been born from it brings me joy like never before .

Yasuhiro Kondo

TOKO CLUB Event
"Making flower vases fired in a wood-fired kiln"

This workshop will take place in Yasuhiro Kondo's studio, where participants will hand-make a vase and then fire it in a wood-fired kiln.

For general pottery making experiences, gas kilns or electric kilns are usually used for firing.
Firing in a wood-fired kiln is an ancient firing method, and it is more difficult to control the inside of the furnace than gas kilns, resulting in works with a unique appearance.

Please take this opportunity to experience it.
