About the Artwork

The theme of this piece is the harmony of the essential charms of wood, which are tenderness, warmth and tension. I faced the wood on the lathe and pursued graciousness within a simple design without being bound by the wood grain.

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.
