Born in 1989 in Sapporo, Hokkaido. After graduating from the Craft Department of Kanazawa College of Art and Craft in 2014, established a studio in Seto, Aichi Prefecture, a well-known center of ceramic production. Using a wheel to throw thin-walled forms in semi-porcelain clay, then building up multiple layers of pigment-mixed porcelain slip and glass-like glazes with differing melting points, the work achieves subtle color strata and delicate gradations. The resulting pieces have a matte texture and a gentle, reassuring weight.
