Gallery talk with lacquer artist, Takashi Wakamiya

Gallery talk with lacquer artist, Takashi Wakamiya

I met Takashi Wakamiya,  lacquer artist in 2008.

I accidentally exhibited works at the same place at the Asian Art Fair in London.

Then we started to work together from the accidental margin, Mr. Wakamiya ‘s personality.

In the past 3 years, there was a big stage for me that I succeed the master name Chikuunsai the 4th.

Among them, I was inspired and taught many things such as Mr. Wakamiya ‘s work on the work, shaping ability, designing power and so on.

There are many things that I could not grow without Wakamiya.

This time with collaboration of bamboo and lacquer

I expressed the twelve signs.

It is a culmination of just one of the collaborations with Mr. Wakamiya.

Mr. Nobuya Maekazi, an art historian, gave a gallery talk.
