What do a poet and a potter have in common? Isn’t the daily task of working with clay, be it plugging, glazing or trimming pots ready to be fired in the kiln much the same as writing zero drafts in a journal and moulding these entries into poetry for publication? After many years of taking notes at Fergus Stewart’s pottery studios, Kathy Kituai and Fergus Stewart, who both endeavour to capture the ordinary moment in their art, came to the conclusion that the main difference between pottery and poetry, was only an extra ‘t’. Deep in the Valley of Tea Bowls, then, sets the process of craft into a fluid dialogue between art forms – pottery and poems – with pleasing and sometimes surprising results. In her sustained collaboration with Scottish ceramicist, Fergus Stewart, Kathy Kituai constructs subtle tanka narratives and scenes where writer and artist work, think and feel, yoked together and apart. Wonderful! – David Gilbey An artist can interact with a material, responding to its signals, improvising, or allowing an idea to develop by reacting as it reveals its twists and turns. A richer blending develops when artists collaborate with each other, the diffusion creating something richer than either had imagined. This book is such a collaboration. – Owen Rye
