「何かに塗料として漆を塗る」以外の漆表現を模索する中で製作した作品です。木が朽ち、なくなってしまった部分を漆だけで再構築しました。
漆そのものと朽ちた木の融合です。

CV
Hisayoshi Muto
Lacquer artist
May every individual's daily life be filled with moments of prosperity.
Since ancient times in Japan, lacquer has supported and enriched our lives. It possesses a stunning and dignified beauty that leaves a lasting impression. The enchanting, deep black luster and glossy brilliance are unique characteristics of lacquer.
On the other hand, lacquer also embodies the gentleness of nature. Its soft texture gently envelops the hearts of those who touch it.
The timeless beauty and gentle nature of lacquer have been cherished for centuries. I invite you to experience both of these qualities and discover the enchanting charm of lacquer.
To achieve this, I fully immerse myself in the world of lacquer every day.
