Urushi

Born in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture, in 1994.
Graduated from the Department of Crafts, Lacquer Art Course, Faculty of Fine Arts, Tokyo University of the Arts in 2017. After completing graduate studies at the same university in 2020, became an independent lacquer artist. While expanding artistic activities at the atelier in Takasaki City, the artist has been presenting works mainly in Tokyo.

Also selected for the 9th Nitten Exhibition in 2023.
The artist expresses a unique worldview in their works, intricately combining advanced lacquer techniques with a high level of three-dimensional sculpting skills as the foundation, and constructing inspiration from perspectives in molecular biology, cosmology, and the similarities and complementary interactions showcased in the micro and macro worlds of nature and materials. This artistic approach is employed to create their distinct vision within their artwork.
