I want to make the Shino chawan in my dreams.
Masaki Miyata collected many Shino pottery fragments to study historical facts in order to cre- ate the most authentic Shino glaze. When it came to actually firing, he changed the clay he used over a hundred times. Not to mention the mineral glaze. “In my mind, there is always the most perfect Shino chawan, and I hope to use my own hands to actually make it. This may be the pursuit of what the ancient Chinese called ‘the unity of knowledge and action’.”
我要把夢裡的志野茶碗做出來。
宮田真幸為了做出最原始的志野釉，搜羅了很多志野碎片來研究史實。實際燒的時候，光是 土，他就換過上百種。更毋庸多說礦釉。「我的腦海裡始終都有一個最完美的志野燒茶碗， 我希望能用自己的雙手，把它實際做出來，這可能就是追求中國古人說的『知行合一』吧。」
