Work Details
staying up late.
The Bremen band didn't go to Bremen, nor did they become a band. But it was a blessing.
I think it was a kind of blessing to be given such a story along with beautiful illustrations when I was young.
The fantasies gained through reading will become small lights, sturdy shoes, and large bags to live in reality, and may make her future girlfriend just a little stronger. Happy birthday for that day.
It is terracotta made of unglazed clay.
Using the “homemade” technique without molding, the soil itself, which has been touched for a long time, is baked with time and thought.
The material hardens in the fire and the clay loses its flexibility, but beautiful color and smoothness are created. It's like death, it's like life, and it's also like a flow of time that never goes back.
For me, firing is not just a process; it's a very important concept and part of the work.

When I was a kid, I fantasized about what was happening in a closed book.
After the story
/Burniness picked up in the corner of the library
Things that are formless but useful are still with me, and sometimes they become small lights, flexible bags, and sturdy shoes, giving me a little strength to face and understand reality.
Terracotta is unglazed clay, and it is in an imperfect state to be called pottery.
Its soft, warm, and dry appearance is very similar to a weathering fantasy.
For me, production is like throwing away memories I can't remember. It is the task of superimposing the present on a someday imaginary landscape and giving it an outline.
