    About the Artist

    Makie Where the Traditional Spirit Lives On Used in Daily Life

    While using traditional, high-level makie skills, lacquer artist Miyako Uchino creates lacquerware that can be used in daily life with her modern sensibility. Using gold and shells, she creates elegant and warm pieces that add vibrant color to everyday life. She restored the makie painting on the wood surface of the ceiling at Kotohira-gu (Kompira-san), and has been striving to pass on Japan's cultural heritage to the future. She continues to create lacquerware as a lacquer artist supporting Japan's lacquer culture.
