Aaron Scythe trained at Carrington Polytech and East Sydney Polytech where he developed an interest in Momoyama pots. While working Aaron built an Anagama kiln and began investigating Shino glazes.
In 1995 Aaron travelled to Japan to study the Minoyaki style of pottery and studied under Koie Ryoji.
During his time in Japan he developed Oribe and Kizeto ware and built another Anagama kiln to produce Shino ware and began working with porcelain. Whilst in Japan Aaron had over 60 solo shows and participated in many group shows and workshops.
Aaron and his family relocated to Whanganui in 2011 due to the Fukushima meltdown.
Aaron adds a distinct bicultural flare to the decoration of his pots with clear references to Te Reo and Japanese culture.
