Seji Okuda makes contrasting black and white ceramic plates in Shigaraki. Shigaraki is known as one of Japan's most famous ceramic towns, and there are many pottery shops along the main road that runs through the heart of Shigaraki, with many ceramic artists living in the area. Okuda was born and raised in Shiga Prefecture, and his father was one of Shigaraki's ceramic artists and teachers. From a young age, he watched his father work and was surrounded by ceramics every day. However, becoming a ceramic artist wasn't his childhood dream.
One day, Okuda accidentally meets the man who will become his future teacher, a ceramicist from Shigaraki. Okuda decides to pay him a short visit, just to talk with him and his friend.
The time spent there took Okuda back to his childhood and sparked new energy and enthusiasm in his heart for ceramics.
