Above: During the Royal visit to Hong Kong Polytechnic in 1986 by Queen Elizabeth II, Aser But was explaining the activity in the Ceramic Workshop. Right: Aser But teaching ceramics in Macau.

Introduction

Clay is always a favourite form of artistic work collected or created by the artist since 1973 after his graduation from the Grantham College of Education in Hong Kong. Since then, the artist has experience in administering  the ceramic workshop at the Hong Kong Polytechnic in the 1980s with the help of a technician and his supervisor. He, as his most favourite pastime, has started to make claywork and also started to collect clay pieces by other artists worldwide. Throughout these years, he has collected more than 20 masterpieces from different parts of the world. With the support of ceramic artists in Hong Kong and Macau in late 2003, a small workshop, Gito Kiln and Workshop, was set up to help students and friends pursuit their interest in clay and to purchase equipment and materials at a more affordable price.

 

Gito Kiln & Workshop (知陶窯及設計室)    Proudly Made in Macau

     Gito Kiln and Workshop was established in Taipa, Macau since September, 2003 with an aim to build a platform in order to share the hand-building and throwing experiences with other artists and students in Macau.

GITO (to know) has a philosophy of teaching young people to learn and practise artistic skills in a friendly and direct manner. Difficulties are reduced to a minimum level, but enhancing students' interest to their best.

Foreword of the One-man Exhibition in Artland Gallery

The Show entitled Family, Spring and Autumn scheduled between 29th July and 7th August, 2003. It then travelled to CO1 School of Visual Arts, and Lui Ming Choi Lutheran College in Hong Kong. The foreword is:

「自然」自語

愛的成果,人人擁有,但我擁有的比人多,感謝神。一瞬間,卅載創作的日子過去了;所得的,有如大自然的宇宙,無窮無盡,不可估計。

先與中學師妹朱杏賢小姐邂逅,於1973年7月29日共諧連理,同年於葛師畢業,戀上「藝術」,從此不能自拔,繼續「雙戀」生活下去。

我家三處,香港、悉尼、澳門,各自各精彩。有大自然的天空、有無塵的原始森林,加上各地人間的氣節,周而復始,萬象更新。這一切,使我及我的家人,享受了世間的美,同時也學會勇於承擔,掌握一切的因果。就是這些人生問題,把我的藝術生命延續下去,我決定看看我的「家」、我師大自然的藝術本性,如何經得起時間的考驗。

這個展覽,就以此為題材,也以此展覽獻給賢妻,對您的愛慕,我願意再作一次堅信;您愛護我倆的家,我再說一次多謝。對大兒秉彥及媳婦潔珊,以及遠在悉尼的小兒遨圻,我都說一聲多謝,卅多年來您們的支持,就是我的創作原動力。

同時藉這個展覽,也向多位啟蒙老師致敬,他們是霍啟昌教授、陳炳添老師、以及王無邪老師,從您們身上我體驗到專業的精神,也感受到良師益友的指導與眷顧。更向多年來支持我的藝林文具印刷有限公司及其員工致謝。

多謝你及所有親朋戚友,撥冗光臨指導!

 

畢子融

2003年7月於澳門知陶工作室
