However Kazuya is currently pioneering a new Bizen style featuring porcelain clay. On the edge of Bizen is the Tsuchihashi porcelain mine, whose raw material is normally crushed and highly processed for both industrial ceramics and refined tableware. However Kazuya is now taking the same raw materials and processing them by hand in the traditional Bizen way, producing a unique, textured white clay he’s calling Bizen \"wild porcelain”.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eSee all his work in \u003ca title='Kazuya Ishida | Bizen \"Wild Porcelain\"' href=\"https:\/\/thedeastore.com\/search?q=Kazuya+Ishida+Wild+Porcelain\"\u003eBizen \"wild porcelain\"\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/thedeastore.com\/collections\/all?gf_141299=Kazuya%20Ishida\u0026amp;gf_141303=1\" title=\"Kazuya Ishida @ DEA\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/thedeastore.com\/pages\/artists-kazuya-ishida\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKazuya Ishida\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e was born into a family of potters in Bizen, Japan, where he still works and lives.
