Event
Mugen/Infinity Tea Ceremony
"Mugen" will not only be an exhibition, but a new technique to prepare tea. It will include a Ryurei style tea ceremony (using table & chairs instead of sitting on the traditional Tatami mat) and we will invite the public to participate.
Everything for the ceremony; tools, a hot water heater, sweets, are hidden inside a 30" ceramic mountain. The inspiration for this work comes from the beautiful Sand Mountains at Kamigamo shrine in Kyoto, Japan.
The tea ceremony is usually done on tatami, but a variation using table and chairs was created in 1872 called Ryurei (). Ryurei was created by Gengen-sai, the 11th headmaster of Ura-senke, for the First Exposition in Japan so that their foreign guests could enjoy the most sophisticated Japanese culture comfortably.
