先日は陶芸作家のヘスアルドさんとあかねさんの家にお邪魔してきました。ヘスアルドさんはスペイン出身、あかねさんは淡路島出身の陶芸作家です。そのお二人は現在栃木県に居と工房LUBA構えています。
The other day I visited Jesualdo and Akane's house. They are pottery artists. Jesualdo is from Spain and Akane is from Awaji-island in Japan. Now they enjoy having a natural life and also organizing an atelier called LUBA in Tochigi.
さすが・・・アーティストの家、ステキ！ダイニングのロールカーテンは市販のものにお二人で絵を描いたそうです。 
That as may be expected of an artist's house! I was impressed by their house!
This roll curtain was painted by both, on a regular market one.
壁の絵はあかねさんの作品。
The picture on the wall is painted by Akane.
そしてそして・・・ 生後６ヶ月の有吾くん。ﾌﾟｸﾌﾟｸしてかわいい～～！！愛嬌をふりまいてくれました！
Here! Their angel. A 6 month old baby named Yugo. So bouncing pretty!! He gave me a winsome smile all the time!
田んぼの海原を見渡すように建つ家。絶景です。オリジナリティが沢山詰まった家。ステキな時間を過ごしました。
お二人にはシェイ・ケイコの企画展でもお世話になっています。ヘスアルドさんの繊細な陶器に対して、あかねさんの力強さのあるどっしりとした作品は対照的、なのに作品達を並べてみると仲良しに、存在を尊重しあっているように見えてくるのは私だけなのかしら・・。機会がある時は是非作品を観てみてくださいね。出会いに感謝です。
The house overlooks an ocean-like green rice field. It is a lovely view!! I like houses that are original like this. I spent a lovely time in there.
They both have had exhibitions at Chez-Keiko and will again. Jesualdo's pottery work is sensitive and Akane's work is powerful and massively atmospheric, but, if they juxtapose both works, it seems to me that they are harmonious (lovebirds) and respect each other. If you have a chance, let's watch their work!! I appreciate having met them.
