He expresses the life force and phenomena felt in nature as pottery.
When the weather is nice, the mountains and the sea envelop you very pleasantly. He is exploring ways to express that gentle, warm atmosphere in his craft.
He is conscious of his relationship with the land around him and usually incorporates rice straw ashes, which are meticulously grown by local rice farmers, into the raw material for his works.
This time, he used mountain soil from Hyogo to create his works.
