Fukiwake Clock 吹き分けの時計

2021 / Product / Takaoka, Toyama, Japan

Abstract Landscape / 抽象的風景

It is a watch that uses the traditional craft technique of Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, which is called "Fukiwake" to make a casting by mixing two kinds of metals. This is a collaboration with Hannyachuzoujo. The pattern created by chance creates a mysterious landscape like an ink painting or an abstract painting. It is also a feature that there is no same pattern again. It is a product in which accidental art and sexagesimal rules coexist.

2種類の金属を混ぜ合わせて鋳物をつくる「吹き分け」という富山県高岡市の伝統工芸の技術を用いた時計です。般若鋳造所とのコラボです。偶然によってできる模様は水墨画のような、抽象画のような、不思議な風景をつくります。2度と同じ模様がないのも特徴です。偶然のアートと60進法の規則が共存したプロダクトです。
