Artist's Note
Time is beautifully accumulated, layered. Pieces of pottery that have fallen apart and lost their way are reassembled. Lacquer is layered over the course of several hours, not to hide the scratches, but to make the surface of the scratches even harder.
Time and memories. Layers of lacquer are piled up over and over again.
May the memories pile up in our daily lives. I pray that we will be able to spend a long time together, stronger and more beautiful. - Early Autumn 2024 Seoul - Hidemi
