Description

Makoto Nakamura is the eldest son of Rokuro Nakamura.
He faithfully reproduces the style of Rokuro Nakamura.
He is also skilled at making sake vessels, just like Rokuro Nakamura.
The hallmark of the Nakamura family is the red clay color.
However, this piece was fired in such intense flames that it lost its red clay hue.
The melted ash has solidified and transformed, resembling a black stone.
Despite the fierce flames, a hint of the red clay color remains within.
I am impressed by the power of his clay.

He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture in 1949.
In 1971, he became an apprentice to his father, Rokuro Nakamura.
He became an independent ceramic artist in 1975.
