In his ceramic work, Ohniguian respects the tea bowl tradition (Japan of the 16Th century).
He uses the Raku technique to create huge jars. With round and smooth shapes, like paunchy matrons with crackled skin that one would like to stroke, they show the freedom of inspiration that drives him.
In his work, you can find the artists' emotions when he's facing all mysteries of creation, linked to these of earth, fire and water.
