For example, we can think of the times and cultures when pottery was made with rope patterns and shell marks.\nSegawa says, \u201cMy daily life consists of the space between my home and studio, which is about a 10-minute walk. In order to find materials during this 10-minute window that would be able to withstand firing at 1250 degrees, I walked while looking down every day.\u201d\nFor craftsmen living in urban areas, materials tend to be far from the site of collection. In this exhibition, you can see Segawa\u2019s commitment to the materials he uses and his attempt to become involved in the regional and epochal characteristics behind it."}]
