People don't understand how talented this legend is! He literally mastered the art of pottery to the limit where he started a whole new genre of it! When i first saw his end products i couldn't believe that it was made on a pottery wheel, kinda was in denial, and then i watched his videos and was stunned! A true pioneer.
A lot of the comments here seem to be using a "craft pottery" yardstick for art pottery. He's a noted fine art potter, not a functional ware potter. Much of the point is to play with the visual tension and drama of something being off-kilter and "caught in movement." That's not a failure, any more than Jasper Johns "failed" to paint a "perfect" American flag, or Meret Oppenheim "failed" to make a usable cup and saucer and spoon. I'm not saying Michikawa is in quite the same league-but at least use an appropriate yardstick to judge. At the same time, these techniques are useful to and usable by craft potters. It's very kind of him and of the Art College to share them with all of us.
The balance and faith in those hands ... tool use and muscle memory ... I will always have those goals namaste 🙇 its all about free concept... it incorporates stuctured and organic ... much appreciated.
Unbelievable skill. He understands the clay almost down to the molecules knowing how it will respond to every one of his touches and tools. That is being a MASTER of your craft.
at first it's hard to "get the point" but after seeing him work for a bit - you DO get the point! I'm sure I could never afford one of his pieces, but watching him make some - it's a privilege.
You should get back into it. I hadn't done pottery since high school and after 48 years I went to a studio and took two classes to relearn it. I have been back for a year and have made a lot of things. I made mugs for everyone for Christmas last uear. So 65 mugs in three months going to a studio almost every day. It sure is therapeutic.
Fascinating work to watch. He's very strong to do so much in one session. I would imagine this could be great for emotional healing. Therapeutic, peaceful, meditative skill.
Calming to watch. Looking for ways to work with clay, with strength issues to do with different parts of the hand. Love the formation that you have created.
Wow, he makes everything look so easy, but it takes many many years to get to his skill level. Some never get there. Each item he made gets your mind thinking of ways to use that technique.
He's a remarkable influence in technique, and vindicates others of his philosophical persuasion, who practice in less adventurous group settings. I've shown this to some fellow club-potters and they now 'get' my errant, mirthful approach.
What on earth is this guy doing!! Shoot! That hole in the piece that started as a triangle!!! Insane!! What's that he's using?! A mop's stick 🤣🤣🤣 This is so much fun and creative, just to be clear 😂

Quer fazer uma roda de oleiro? Bom, pode encontrar instruccoes no site Pinterest mas se nao sabe ler ingles, vai complicar muito. Entre nos, nao vale a pena. Melhor importar uma roda ja feita. Tem muitos vendedores aqui nos EEUU. So tem que pesquisar.
Cyclinders are very important! It is the shape to almost every vessel you'll make in your class! If you have an Instagram, I'd like to see your upcoming work. :) mine is @jamesleasian I also am a potter!
That's how everyone starts. Some days it feels like you can't make anything, and other days it just flows. Even when I have been doing well, there are times I really mess up.
The first piece I was really impressed like dang wat else can this guy do. Then after the plate I started thinking wtf am I watching. Then reading the comments I guess he has finished pieces online n so I figured I'd check em out. "What in the holy asterisk, 3500$ for.. what even is that!?"
I do pottery and his skill level is way up there. He makes it look easy, but that is years and years it took him to get this point. Even with that much time, not many people get to his level. He is an absolute artist.
Shozo is an artist that focuses on making art not for functionality or for consumers, which he mentions in the beginning of the video, but for art galleries. He is showing off natural art, not common methods for the average potter or consumer, that mimic natural organic formations. Ignoramus.
Did not fully appreciate until I googled his finished work. Very nice. He understands the forms he creates. Nice process of discovery.
Every move Shozo-san made was a lesson I never conceived of using. Thank you very much, Arrigoto !!!
Genial !!!!
Woow!!!!, you are an inspiration and a motivator.
Excelente técnica, siempre se aprende algo nuevo, te quedó espectacular

Simply Amazing! Truly magnificent art work and he is such a talented artist
Haven't been so inspired in a very long time. Thank you!

Thank you for the inspirational video with many techniques.
Big beautiful hands! Love how he doesn't think about the client and lets the clay do what it will
You’ve magic in your hands 😍😍

Around 58:00 clearly he doesn't...

I know nothing about this art medium, but this was fantastic to watch. Thanks for sharing it!
Sangat indah .banyak hal baik yang sangat menginspirasi saya. Terimakasih untuk orang-orang yang sangat baik dan senang berbagi
Wish I still did that.. it's very therapeutic just even watching

Straightening the cylinder wall with a flat rib before expanding is essential to spiraling a decoration.
Very beautiful

I like the last one, but imagine having to clean these...
From where to get clay?
Do you have a pottery studio near you or a ceramic supply place?
Very good vibe... M.. new fri...
1:00:30 a pineapple vase. Hehee sorry enjoyed watching that 1st one come together
Wow he’s talented, I’m a beginner and I’m just trying to learn how to make a cylinder on the wheel

Earth Nation Ceramics does good beginner and intermediate videos

You are a Master i d like to be your student
AMazing work ! nice if they clapped...
i clapped just watching him by myself. He really deserved it.
Wow
5:33 An attempt at becoming megaman.
WOW
Impaling the poor clay with the last one!!! He never fails to surprise!!
good hand mark
Chào bạn bạn khéo tay quá
Funny how you can hear mumbling in Swedish in the back ground saying "Chinese" when he's clearly Japanese xD
And only one look from him and the chitchatting stops... :D

Love it, especially the first one. For me (and respectfully), it seemed to devolve a little from there.
He make my day 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 He’s hilarious comedy person!
3:33 It looks like it's dancing.
not too sure about that 4th thing.
I think I can be a clay master in no time without experience lol
I have a square chunk of clay in my shed. I call it "What could have been", and its for sale for 1200 euro. I too am grate artiste

Sério???????
Quero fazer um torno desse aí.
Me explique
Ola clecio, tem alguns tutoriais em portugues sobre, alguns falar de utilizar motor de esteira de academia, ou motores menores.
So nics
LoL fooled me looked like termite mound at first !
very neat techniques but forgive me, what is 48:30 supposed to be ? just a neat piece of art then?
I think he's mostly showing off techniques to achieve shapes and styles of shapes
