Guinomi creates a very organic feel. The bulbous form, like some tuber or bulb found in nature, a sake-flower bulb, shows scars where kutsuki (other items) have fused to it in the heat of the conflagration. Allow this bulb to grow to fruition, blossoming into a shared night of conversation and company or a quiet night of music and moonlight…

Tsujimura Yui was born the first son of the legendary artist Tsujimura Shiro in 1975, and his illustrious fathers emphasis on nature and the clashing of forces within the kiln are apparent in his work. He began intensively potting under the tutelage of Shiro in 1993. 9 years later he completed his own kiln in Nara, and has since began his solo career. The very next year (2003) he was exhibited at the Hankyu Department Store in Osaka, and this was the leaping off point of many solo and group exhibitions at galleries throughout Japan. In 2010 the Metropolitan Museum of Art New York acquired one of his large Tsubo storage jars as part of their permanent collection.
