About the Artwork
I used Jindai zelkova, a dark toned wood which has been underground for over 800 years. I created a design with a light impression by inlaying aluminum and copper rings rhythmically on the sides of the bowl.

Techniques Used
Wood turning
In wood turning (hikimono), a piece of wood is rotated on a lathe and shaped with various cutting tools. Wood turning is suited to the creation of round trays, containers, and bowls. Different blades and cutting angles can be used to produce a wide range of forms. Balanced, symmetrical forms are made by spinning the lathe at a constant speed.
