Stanford physicist Hideo Mabuchi grew up surrounded by art and began collecting it himself during his travels. So, although he began making ceramics on "a bit of a whim," it was another way of engaging with something he'd long appreciated. As for being a physicist to boot, Mabuchi has always had broad interests.
Getting into wood-firing solidified Mabuchi's devotion to ceramics. Intrigued by the transformation of featureless, bare clay into a conglomeration of colors and textures, he has made dozens of wood-fired pieces, built his own wood-fired kiln on campus and studied the physical and chemical process of wood-firing using electron microscopes at the Stanford Nano Shared Facilities.
