The origin of Hakata Kyokumono is said to date back to the reign of Empress Jingu, and according to "Chikuzen Province Shoku-fudoki" written by Kaibara Mashiken in the Genroku era, it was used as a ritual tool for Hakozaki Hachiman Shrine at the time. Made of cedar or cypress boards, heated, bent, and bound with cherry bark, it was used for daily necessities such as ohitsu (rice bowls) and lunch boxes, as well as for tea ceremony utensils. The difference between kyokumono and those made in other regions is that kyokumono are not coated with lacquer, but rather the grain of the wood itself is brought out to full advantage. Another unique feature of Hakata is that pictures are painted directly on the kyokumono. In particular, the "poppo-zen," a set of dishes used for the Shichigosan ・ 100-day-old weaning ceremony to celebrate the growth of a child, is unique to Hakata and is not found in other regions, and is decorated with the pine, bamboo, plum, and crane and turtle motifs that are essential for celebrations. This exhibition introduces the kyokumono created by Yoshiko Shibata and the craftsmen of Shibata Toku Shoten, one of the two remaining kyokumono stores in Fukuoka City.
Imajuku dolls, the folk clay dolls that were the mother of Hakata dolls, began in 1905 when Mr. Seisuke Ohashi opened "Hitosei," a Sekku doll shop in Imajuku. Many of the dolls are connected to people's traditional lifestyles, folklore, and beliefs, and representative examples include "monkey masks" to protect against fire ・ and theft, "Saizo Sasano masks" and "Otafuku masks". Imajuku dolls, with their simplicity and warmth, have been loved by many people. Currently, Seisuke and Shigeo, the second generation, have taken over the clay molds that they have carefully used, and Shigeo's niece, Yumiko Sato, continues to preserve the tradition. This exhibition also features creative clay dolls made by Yumiko, who is supported by her family in the creation of her Imajuku dolls, and her husband, Yoshiaki Sato, a traditional Hakata doll craftsman and judge at the Nitten and other exhibitions. Yumiko says that she wants to preserve her dolls made of clay from her hometown, Nanakuma ( ) in Jonan-ku, Fukuoka City, because she believes that the most important thing in doll making is clay, while preserving what is old and new in it.
Please enjoy the beauty and skill of craftsmanship inherited by female artisans.
