For years I have worked as a physiotherapist,
kneading people who were out of balance,
making them whole again. Now I find inner peace and satisfaction in kneading clay.
The hands I used to heal people with, are the same hands with which I now bind warmth, intimacy, strenght, colour and harmony into a Chawan.
My Chawan.
私は長年にわたって理学療法士として働き、バランスのくずれた人達を「捏ねて」治療してきた。今の私は土を捏ねることに内面的な平静と満足を感じる。
人々を治してきた、その同じ手を使って、私は今、温かさや親密感、強さ、色、調和をしっかりとりいれた茶碗を創る。私の茶碗を。
