如果說陶藝是「土」與「火」的藝術，林瑞華的高溫柴燒陶藝創作，就是用火極致的淬鍊—人的思維與手的韻律，經過溫度的情感轉化顯得渾然天成。土胎中原有的稀有元素，透過超越極限的高溫轉換成面目一新的材質，呈現出別開生面的質地。從骨胎裡面燒出來的「釉母」不只是對表面的落灰﹑自然釉色或火痕變化的追求，當骨胎裡各種稀有物質不斷被釋出，前所未見的美妙質感就被呈現。
展覽中的每件作品，皆由林瑞華親自練製土礦再手捏成型。他對最自然的元素不斷鑽研突破了陶藝的極限，僅用廢木料和土，最環境友善的方式燒出全世界最高的溫層，開拓出全新的陶藝領域。這是一個全新的美感世界，林瑞華要燒的不只是「物」，而是生活哲學；不但是對文明的省思，也是一種生命態度。林瑞華跨出中國陶瓷追求釉色與造型之美的古典美學；跳脫日本柴燒陶藝追求火痕與自然落灰變化的框架；也有別於歐美現代陶藝追求觀念、造型與材質的表現手法。
2016年6月創下了金氏世界紀錄「柴燒窯的最高溫度－1563℃」，走向人類陶瓷從未探索過的超高溫領域，重新詮釋了土與火的極限。林瑞華的「未來陶」不上釉藥，自然燒出玉化、礦物、寶石的色澤與質感，創造出質變的藝術。從臺灣出發的「未來陶」，林瑞華要讓世界看到陶瓷的新方向！
If ceramics is an art of earth and fire, Lin Jui-hwa’s high-temperature wood-fired ceramic art is the pinnacle of trial by fire. Human thought and the rhythm of hands, transformed by temperature, become works of natural emotions. The trace elements in the clay body are converted into a new material under the exceedingly high heat, exhibiting never-before-seen textures. The “mother glaze” from the firing process is not merely an expression of flame variations of fallen ash and natural glaze colors. When the trace elements are extracted from the clay, they form beautiful textures on which no human eyes had laid.
Each piece of Lin Jui-hwa’s work came from his own clay refinement and hand forming. He meticulously studied the most natural elements and found his breakthrough. Only with scrap wood and clay, in the most environment-friendly ways, he reached the world’s highest kiln temperature and broke new ground in the field of ceramic art. This is a completely new world of aesthetics. Lin’s goal is not to create mere objects, but life philosophy, which is a reflection on civilization as well as an attitude toward life. Lin stepped out of the classical aesthetics in Chinese ceramics, which focuses on glaze colors and form, and broke away from the tradition of flame patterns and natural ash glaze in Japanese wood-fired ceramics. He also distinguished himself from the expressive pursuit of concepts, form, and materials in modern Western ceramic art.
In June 2016, he made the Guinness World Record of highest temperature in a wood-fired kiln at 1563°C, taking a step into the previously unexplored ultra-high temperature firing and redefined the limits of earth and fire. Lin’s “Future Ceramic” has no glazing, only textures and colors of natural crystallization, minerals, and gems - which is the art of qualitative transformation. With Taiwan’s “Future Ceramic,” Lin Jui-hwa intends to show the world a new direction in ceramics.
