On this adventure to Japan, we’ll look at the relationships between ceramics, textiles, rural areas and country living as an important lens for understanding the cultural underpinings of this fantastic country. We'll encounter potters, weavers, and other craftspeople in their studios, Zen Buddhist monks, local guides, and natural landscapes. We'll also visit ceramic and textile galleries, museums, and studios, often in rural communities. We’ll work together to understand relationships between craft and nature in historical and contemporary times for a special perspective on Japanese society throughout our journey.
