This video has no voiceover and no subtitles. The story is nonetheless fascinating. I love seeing artists in total control of their craft, so watching these Korean ceramics masters is an inspiration. The birth and growth of lumps of clay into vases, pitchers and urns is the story. The details of their creation--fingertips raising beige blocks into delicate flutes, knives lifting away tissue-thin layers in a repeated design--bring the poetry. The featured artists are from the Korean village of Icheon, a center of ceramic mastery from the 14th century. Watch it as an antidote to the blinky, blinky, touch-pad ephemera of our digital age. https://youtube/watch?v=vhsi6RKVtVg
