"I was a builder in Tokyo. One day while digging in the dirt, I came across a layer of white clay and remembered that my father was a potter. I took some of the clay home, hand-built a vessel, put it in a small electric kiln that I borrowed from a local band mate, and fired it on the balcony of my council house. Later, I studied pottery at Barnet College in London, and then moved to Shikoku to take over my father's kiln."
Tori Kudo is a Japanese musician and potter. His longtime musical vehicle is Maher Shalal Hash Baz. His ceramics have been shown at Void in Japan, Blank Forms in Brooklyn, and David Risley Gallery formerly of Copenhagen amongst other fine places.
