Back in the eighties I used to make pottery in a club in Hungary ran by an archaeologist. The creative environment and collective spirit paired with individual artistic manifestation was everything one wanted. It was so enriching. Now living in Canada seeing people drinking cafe from disposable paper cups is something I still have to reconcile with. People earn more money and yet they are bankrupt in more than one way. Most people in Canada cannot afford taking pottery and taking time off from their busy life. Often people are spending hours commuting and serving their masters. What a wonderful world!
@@daveowens Of course not. It was more of a way to say that in a money driven world we lost the sense of nowness. It does not have to be pottery. It could be anything. Most people work too hard just to get ahead. How many can afford to get lost in their own creative world and not worry about paynig bills and get their kids through university. Freedom from self imposed slavery.
@@cliffdariff74 Exactly! That's what I am talking about. Just work at 2 or 3 jobs commute 2-3 hours on a daily base, drink some beer or Timmies and watch some hockey. Seems perfect for most in Canada where the majority cannot even speak the two official languages. Sense of freedom, art. culture.literature, meaningful travel and understanding man's devine nature are sure not for everybody.
If only most movies were shot so carefully, richly, and tastefully as this video. The light, airy feel and nude toned composition of the making of the mug, then the dark, heavy, shadows and heavy sparks of red flame, the cobalt of the oven, the earthy browns of the paint, the porcelain delicateness of the glaze captured in how fragile the piece seems with its bone white complexion.... if only.
Appreciate the videographer who took these macro shots cause it's so satisfying to watch. You can see how an artist works precisely with their hands just amazing how God made us
Funny tht i should read this comment now...half an hour ago I was watching something..an American woman asked her husband if he wanted coffee ..when he said yes she poured him a cup and walked away. I wondered "but what about the milk? " . Im not British Im Indian ..Here i ve only seen "edgy " people having black coffee. Or lactose intolerant ones.
Perfect little film on throwing. All the elements were in sync. Composition and sound and rhythm. Art is philosophy made tangible, and this succeeded admirably. Will add this to my students must watch list. My wheel and Kiln are at school and the plague has removed that joy from me for now. But I am building a new studio so by fall they should be home with me. There is joy in building a studio as well, but not the easy peace of throwing.
I'm a big mug collector. I usually collect mugs from theatre shows I like. or from artists. or some that people give me. I would love to learn to make my own. The energy in there is so peaceful it's warming. Loved this video. and love that we get to see how a mug is made. simply gorgeous. would love to find a place and try make some
this really captures the feelings I get when I work with clay, including the rough and messy parts, like attaching a handle, or working with a lot of water on the wheel.
My Mom,does pottery,used TO,BUT NOT of thus quality,But she and her FRIEND Joyce had a pottery club,Still have a lot of the Great things they produced, Working with your hands.Late Father was a MASTER WOOD CRAFTSMAN, May he R.I.P.,The things he made were astonising,Working with your hands,is quite rewarding,Love this Video, and l LIKE milk in my tea,though l DON'T drink it much,more coffee at times,Anyway,Thank You for this calming,creative,productive video, Wood working is somewhat similar, Love working with my hands,Especially Rewarding, like painting,writing,etc,VERY WELL DONE,AND YOU ARE VERY, VERY GOOD AT POTTERY,THANK YOU,and Thank YOU TUBE,FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO,!!!!

That's lovely to watch and to me, it's also a dream. It's on my most desired things to learn... I don't know I'm it's taking me so long. Thank you for sharing 💜
Makes me want to drop whatever I am doing and make mugs. For life.
You should do it . It's always a good time to start
Same here
please don't drop that cup though
or make tea ... for life.
@@TheCompleteGuitarist That would be wonderful too.

That doesn't mean we should though. :D

What should people in Canada be doing instead of working,,?

You really need a life, bud!
@@slickster2880 strange comment.
@@slickster2880 and yet here you are commenting... You're the one who needs a life guy 😂
@@elitheowl3896 Stick your comment up your ass Eli!
I was immediately bugged by the sound and music, couldn't watch longer than 10 seconds.
This made me remember taking pottery years ago. Used to go after work and just calm down after a long day. I miss it. Maybe I'll take a class.
Did you look to see if there are any local amateur pottery clubs/lessons that you could check out?
Lucky you. I badly want to learn pottery but we don't have it in my town.
If you haven't done it yet, do it! What's to lose?
Farisa Smith me too
Did you ever take that class?
Beautifully shot, beautiful items produced - richly rewarding.
That looks like the best cup of tea anyone has ever had in their life
Looks can be decieving.

I love everything about this film!!
When I was a kid my mom used to work making ceramics, this video made me remember that time and bring me so many good memories
Yes,My Mom and her great friend,Had a pottery club,They made Amazing Things,Still HAVE MOST of them,from late Suxties,Seventies..
Oh ThankYou! How beautiful. The cup , the quality of the video, all perfect and beautiful.
Shoutout to whoever shot and edited this, it was like a work of art
I didn't want this to end.
Me neither...if only they will make a thousand more like this.
I only realized this was British after I saw the tea poured into the milk.

That tea deserves a two year prison sentence.
@@iang1119 Oh yes indeed, it almost ruined the whole video.
Skwrl Fuzz Sri Lankans add tea and milk too... No wait... It was introduced by British
*facepalm*
@@malithtennakoon6314 Doesn't look like Sri Lanka nor Sri Lankans in the video.
This is the most beautiful thing I saw today. I am in tears.
This video was the best thing I've watched in a very very long time! The craftsmanship is incredible! Absolutely love it!
A wonderful Film. Trank you
What an amazingly pieceful shortmovie. I enjoyed it, thanks. Simone from Antwerp
Its so therapeutic to watch
makes me want to drop out of school and just learn a craft and live off of that
How beautiful, what a love for a product, what a calmness, what a "now"ness….
Stayed glued to this video, dont know why !
Incredibly calming. A comfort zone full of peace.
Excellent film. Wonderfully directed and shot.

Beautiful artistry
I felt such a sense of calm while watching this. Cathartic indeed!
There is nothing more satisfying than making your own mug and have a tea!
I was constantly on edge right from the moment he put the mug in the kiln. Thankfully it did not break! 😌
Why do I feel a tingle in my mouth...I like it

love this! thanks for the reccomendation, UA-cam.
Simplesmente mágico! sou ceramista vivo também esta magia incrível ! Um grande e afetuoso abraço
Your way of making videos and sound seems like it is a part of me. Thank you so much for making these videos
SOoooo ~ Satisfying video! It makes me comfortable.
Beautiful!!!
Refreshingly beautiful & very satisfying .. 🙌
Very poetic, I love it
That's wonderful!
So poetic- the ritual...
Completely satisfying until the end when tea was poured into the mug with milk already added 😱
Not sure that qualified as tea ... ;-)
Amazing video, that I feel lacks only one little detail in the end - the sound of a satisfied slurp.
This soundtrack tho. Who's the musician?
