In the studio with Welsh potter Phil Rogers. He talks us through kneading clay and adding sand. Phil goes on to demonstrate how he throws a yunomi, a jug body and a bowl. He reveals the unorthodox way he throws tall vessels and how he begins to turn the foot ring at the end of throwing.
Masterclass | Ken Matsuzaki | Throwing Chawan
While photographing the Japanese potter Ken Matsuzaki for the Goldmark Gallery 2007 monograph, Jay Goldmark was invited to film Matsuzaki in his studio at his kick wheel throwing Chawan (Teabowls) ‘off the hump’ (from a large, single mound of clay). This is rare footage of one of Japan’s internationally respected potters at work.
