Many ask if these were functional. Most likely their only function was to create a high form of aesthetic beauty for the nobility in the Joseon dynasty.

This piece will become clothed in white once firmed up in the buncheong, or “white slip” method. This resourceful way of working transforms darker iron rich clays into appearing much whiter or brighter. Symbolically, the process mirrors the comfort in our own natural tendencies to cover and clothe our naked bodies. For me the depth of the buncheong vessel is thus a very primal reflection of the human drama, a theatre in which we wear masks and clothing to express our being. . #minetti #marcominetti #minettidesign #moonjar #onggi #pottery #wildclay #movementmeditation #hugomento #hugomentosf
