Poised describes a recurring form in Jaejun Lee’s practice — an upright, self-balancing vessel whose narrow foot and gently tapering body give it a sense of quiet verticality. In this Lush Forest series version, the form is given its deepest, most saturated celadon tone, a forest-toned green-grey that darkens toward the vessel’s shoulder and lightens where the glaze thins on its way down.
As with the rest of his celadon work, Jaejun Lee wheel-throws the porcelain body before applying the glaze to the upper section only, allowing it to run freely during the gas-fired reduction at Cone 9. The result is a controlled but unrepeatable pattern of drips, each one fixed at the moment the kiln reaches its final temperature — part of the artist's ongoing exploration of celadon glaze in reduction firing.
