Born in Tokyo in 1990. After completing a graduate degree at Kyoto Seika University's Graduate School of Arts, relocated to Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture. Works with the technique of "noyaki" (open-air firing)—firing clay without a kiln, using only firewood and straw. Influenced by Pueblo pottery traditions, and guided by the philosophy of "making vessels necessary for one's own life," blends multiple types of clay and employs techniques such as carbonization with rice husks to give each piece a unique character. Also runs a curry restaurant, "Tanacurry."
