The moment materials meet, crack, and transform \u2014 this sequence of events has been at the core of her practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this exhibition, small works made in the United States are brought together with recent pieces from the A Lump of Feelings series. Different times, different fires. Yet the question remains the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fruits, Homes, Animals \u2014 these works were born through distinct firing methods: raku, gas soda, anagama, and pit firing. Each carries the memory of its own fire. The small scale is not a limitation. If anything, the relationships between place, time, and material become more concentrated, more intense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In A Lump of Feelings, stone and clay are fired as one. The stone cracks, the clay shifts, and the two emerge as a single mass. It is accident, event, and trace of repair all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What the fire kept breathes quietly inside these small forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u690d\u7530\u9ebb\u7531\u306f\u3001\u77f3\u3068\u571f\u3092\u5171\u306b\u713c\u304f\u30b7\u30ea\u30fc\u30ba\u3092\u624b\u304c\u3051\u308b\u9676\u82b8\u5bb6\u3067\u3042\u308b\u3002\u7d20\u6750\u304c\u51fa\u4f1a\u3044\u3001\u5272\u308c\u3001\u5909\u5f62\u3059\u308b\u2014\u2014\u305d\u306e\u4e00\u9023\u306e\u51fa\u6765\u4e8b\u3092\u3001\u4f5c\u54c1\u306e\u6838\u3068\u3057\u3066\u6271\u3063\u3066\u304d\u305f\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u672c\u5c55\u3067\u306f\u3001\u30a2\u30e1\u30ea\u30ab\u3067\u5236\u4f5c\u3057\u305f\u5c0f\u54c1\u7fa4\u3068\u3001\u8fd1\u5e74\u306e\u300cA Lump of Feelings\u300d\u30b7\u30ea\u30fc\u30ba\u3092\u540c\u3058\u7a7a\u9593\u306b\u4e26\u3079\u308b\u3002\u7570\u306a\u308b\u6642\u9593\u3001\u7570\u306a\u308b\u706b\u3002\u3057\u304b\u3057\u554f\u3044\u306f\u5909\u308f\u3089\u306a\u3044\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fruits\u3001Homes\u3001Animals\u2014\u2014\u3053\u308c\u3089\u306e\u4f5c\u54c1\u306f\u3001\u697d\u713c\u30fb\u30ac\u30b9\u30bd\u30fc\u30c0\u30fb\u7a74\u7aaf\u30fb\u91ce\u713c\u304d\u3068\u3044\u3063\u305f\u7570\u306a\u308b\u713c\u6210\u306b\u3088\u3063\u3066\u751f\u307e\u308c\u3001\u305d\u308c\u305e\u308c\u306e\u706b\u306e\u8a18\u61b6\u3092\u62b1\u3048\u3066\u3044\u308b\u3002\u5c0f\u54c1\u3068\u3044\u3046\u30b9\u30b1\u30fc\u30eb\u306f\u3001\u5236\u7d04\u3067\u306f\u306a\u3044\u3002\u3080\u3057\u308d\u3001\u5834\u6240\u3068\u6642\u9593\u3068\u7d20\u6750\u306e\u95a2\u4fc2\u304c\u3001\u3088\u308a\u6fc3\u304f\u51dd\u7e2e\u3055\u308c\u308b\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u300cA Lump of Feelings\u300d\u3067\u306f\u3001\u77f3\u3068\u9676\u571f\u3092\u5171\u306b\u713c\u304f\u3002\u77f3\u306f\u5272\u308c\u3001\u571f\u306f\u5909\u5f62\u3057\u3001\u4e8c\u3064\u306f\u3072\u3068\u3064\u306e\u584a\u3068\u3057\u3066\u713c\u304d\u4e0a\u304c\u308b\u3002\u5076\u7136\u3067\u3042\u308a\u3001\u51fa\u6765\u4e8b\u3067\u3042\u308a\u3001\u4fee\u5fa9\u306e\u75d5\u8de1\u3067\u3082\u3042\u308b\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u708e\u304c\u6b8b\u3057\u305f\u3082\u306e\u306f\u3001\u5c0f\u3055\u306a\u304b\u305f\u3061\u306e\u4e2d\u3067\u9759\u304b\u306b\u606f\u3065\u3044\u3066\u3044\u308b\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"518\" height=\"800\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/4AA4ECD5-EC4C-4DD5-91F5-3658BB9D9305_1_105_c.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1904\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"510\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/433CBE8E-0E08-4597-884F-2F4356AC3EA8_1_201_a.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1907\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>March 24\u201329, 2026 The Ray &amp; Georgia Gough Design Research SpaceCollege of Visual Arts &amp; Design, UNT Ar&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1904,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[39,37,38,15,21,31,11],"tags":[130,117,116,58,59,54,55,44,42,43],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1903"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1903"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1903\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1909,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1903\/revisions\/1909"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1904"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1903"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mayuueda.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
