Introduction
Introduction

"To cherish small things..."

Toshinari Ogawa, who creates small objects in Hino City, Tokyo, will be exhibiting his first solo exhibition with themes of adornment [obi clasps, obi ornaments, hair clips], enjoyment [tea ceremony utensils such as incense boxes, tea scoops, lid rests, and sweet picks], and play [pen rests, tanzaku hangers], showcasing small and charming items.
Last year, one late autumn day, I visited Ogawa's workshop, where he was working with precious woods, ivory, coral, pearls, and other materials with meticulous care and attention to detail. Mr. Ogawa invited me to take a walk nearby, and we strolled through the green spaces and streams close to his workshop, where I listened to him talk about the land where he was born and raised, and his thoughts on his work.
A charming and vibrant exhibition of Toshiaki Ogawa's small works, perfect for early spring. Please feel free to take a look and we would be delighted to hear your comments.

Biography
Biography		Born in Yokohama in 1955.
In 1973, he studied under Buddhist sculptor Tokuma Yui and under Chisho Fukushima of the Dai Nippon Chado Gakkai (Great Japan Tea Ceremony Society) in the tea ceremony.
In 1975, I became a lay practitioner of Zen meditation at Seikō Zenji Temple in Yamanashi Prefecture, studying under Sōtetsu Kanemaru and also under Master Sōgen Ōmori (Master of the International Zen Dojo).
In 1985, I opened Sculpture Studio 0 in Hino City, Tokyo.

Alongside his own creative work, he spent 18 years at the request of art museums, assisting artists with their creative processes and setting up exhibition venues.
We create original stationery items such as clip holders and brush holders that combine traditional arts and crafts with modern designs and Japanese playfulness, as well as Japanese clothing accessories such as obi clasps and obi ornaments, and tea ceremony utensils.
Her works have been exhibited at Penbtech Aoyama Study Hall, Haneda Airport Discovery Museum (Eisei Bunko) shop, and Ginza Kyukyodo.
