Taku Nakano's Work
Saideigama

The meaning of the word "Saidei" is Taku Nakano's original painting technique of creating various patterns and scenes through inserting pigments of color into mud.

Unlike the traditional coloring techniques (such as slipping), the pattern is developed by pouring one ore more color pigments on a vessel at once. It is said that originally, pottery is an art concerned with how well someone can use fire and how well one can make a drawing. But according to this technique, the desired design is produced by the mud itself.

The creator has to take into consideration the speed/spread of the color in order to concentrate on creating the desired pattern. The main creation theme is the Auroras (the northern and southern polar lights) expressing the universe's magnetic fields. A thin lower layer of color which is evident over an upper layer of color gives a three dimensional impression to the viewer. This is a new and innovative technique.
