The beauty and harmony strengthen in a kiln are that I`m interesting.
I explores the interdependence between the object`s form an function. Relying on the simplest forms of expression, I want to make the object`s functional aspect
a starting point to comprehend its form. Thus form is viewed as the essence of function.
