Without action: from the potter's wheel and kiln

In the full bloom of spring, Teahouse Hada presents an exhibition by artist Kim Young-tae of Gonmyungyo, Sacheon, Gyeongnam. Starting with the 'Ido Dawang', artist Kim Young-tae has continued the tradition of Korean pottery through a long exploration and contemplation of soil. His work goes beyond simple object creation, capturing the essential beauty created by earth and fire, as well as the spirituality and depth of time contained within.

This exhibition, <無作爲: From the Wheel and Kiln>, showcases the vitality of ceramics in harmony with nature through the natural and powerful lines formed on the potter's wheel and the free yet profound elegance and colors created in the kiln. The true essence of ceramics, blossoming from <無作爲> (mujakwi: non-contrivance), stands out. We invite you to take time to contemplate 'the depth beyond form' in front of these works, which condense the artist's long-standing sensibilities and philosophy.

Content

During the exhibition period, we have prepared a special time with Kim Young-tae (Dansan), a potter from Gonmyeongyo. A tea ceremony from the Goryeo Dynasty will unfold, where 'Jotaeyeonga Muhyangcha,' made in the form of Dan tea, is ground on a Da-yeon (tea inkstone) and then whisked. You can experience a profound moment where tea and ceramics meet while drinking tea in the Goryeo style. Afterwards, we will share the time of ceramics built by earth, fire, and the sensation of hands, and continue the conversation with the artist.
