| Introduction Introduction |
I am pleased to announce that I will be holding my first solo exhibition at Kakiden. The softness and warmth of Hagi ware, which deepens in character with use, is an important theme for the artists. I believe that my work, which makes the most of the unique characteristics of the clay, is my starting point. I would be grateful if you would take the time to view my work. Sakakura Shinbei |
