漆黒、金蒔絵の美しさを感じてもらいたい作品です。
奈良時代には確立されたと言われている蒔絵や螺鈿の技法です。
脈々と受け継がれたその技法を用いて、漆芸でイメージする形や意匠とは違う感覚を高い技術で製作しました。

Maki-e and the lacquer used in lacquerware are polished with charcoal. Polishing the lacquer with charcoal creates an infinite number of small scratches, but the powder from the charcoal is repeatedly used to polish the surface and rub in the lacquer to create the gloss associated with Japanese lacquer.
he insists that my work be original and even make the base forms to which I apply lacquer. He used gold and silver power for Maki-e and abalone, green turban (turbo marmoratus), and other shells for inlaying. He also uses other natural materials, such as the wing cases of jewel beetles to create modern pieces with a strong sense of design based on themes of air, wind, light, and sky.
