Yoji Haijima: Gutenberg Charcoal Books/ Toward the Origins of Civilization

Worship the Gods of the Burned Fields

1) 12 Offerings to Venus of the Burned Fields
2) 12 Iconologies of 12 Venuses

(Ikebana as interface between Nature, the Universe, and the human world)
According to Aristotle, plants have a soul, a psyche that partakes in photosynthesis and
draws nourishment from the earth—that is, they are living beings.
Focusing on plants and their psyches, Ikebana has developed as an encounter with the
natural environment and the forms of production among which we exist.
This installment of the Gutenberg Charcoal Books series revisits the ancient practice of
slash-and-burn cultivation.
Today, through the optics of ecology, we encounter Nature in an entirely new light.
We live in an era when humans and all living organisms, minerals, the air and H2O,
politics, economics, and even war have been subsumed into one vast information system
which we know as Nature/the Universe.
Harbored within the formal/divine cause of all creation, the “ultimate information”…
“The Introduction to New Ikebana-ism.”

The Kan Sumi Studio in Aomori uses specialized techniques to promote the soil-improving
effects of charcoal. Carbonizing books for the “Gutenberg Charcoal Books
Project” in their kiln was a way of reflecting on agricultural ideals in Japan since the days
of slash-and-burn farming. I offer these reflections as an invitation to think about the
present state of development of our human civilization.

Teppei Ono, who lives in 450m high of the mountain in Kochi Prefecture. He has a kiln and making pottery there. Loose shaped big plates, warm fuzzy feeling of rice bowl, tea cup that can serve plenty of hot water. These are just daily items in your ordinal life, but they will be more and more bautiful by you use them everyday.
Yumi Hayakawa, she is a wife of Teppei, had traveled around Asia and met hand made fabrics, hilltribe costumes. It pushed her to start fabric works after that. Her works are delicately hand-made, just like setting seeds, or makeing foods for her family. They bring you a feeling of good and old time.
Both workds have “sign of hand-work”. Isn’t this what we really demanding now?
