A ceramic artist from Shizuoka Prefecture. After graduating from art university, she studied ceramics in Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture, and is now based in Tagata-gun, Shizuoka. She creates her own glazes and decorations from natural materials close at hand—including ash from the pruned branches and leaves of her family's persimmon farm, rice straw ash, and seashells collected from the beach—guided by a philosophy of additive-free, nature-rooted making. She focuses primarily on everyday tableware such as mugs and rice bowls, each piece bearing its own unique character from the hand-forming process.
