《闇月焼 》“Dark Moon: Snow”  series is a tribute to 月白釉 Moon White Glaze,  signature glaze of the 16th generation master of Asahiyaki. Lee explores a contemporary interpretation of the traditional ceramic style. In a contrast to the traditional colors of Asahi (morning sun), Lee use the same pale bluish white glaze to decorate black colored tea bowls to imitate moonlit snow under dark nights.
