The weather has been warm and comfortable lately.
Well, as a matter of fact, it has been a little while, but Professor. Satoshi Yasuuchi has joined the list of artists on our website!
We have been introducing him at art fairs and department stores, but now you can also see him on our website.
Professor. Yamanouchi is also well known as the creator of Nara’s mascot character “Sento-kun”.
Originally involved in the restoration of Buddhist statues, he is currently a professor of “Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Properties” at Tokyo University of the Arts.
His works, which incorporate Japanese Buddhist and oriental views of nature, are dynamic and tasteful, yet have an essential sense of gentleness and warmth.

The bronzes are based on the original wooden sculptures.
Each is personally signed and numbered by the artist.
Of course, they come with a paulownia wood box.
