My practice focuses on creation, supplemented by teaching. The studio offers merchandise sales and hands-on workshops. My work primarily uses 'red copper' to create realistic sculptures, drawing inspiration from the natural world. Leveraging red copper's inherent strength and malleability, each vein and texture is painstakingly hammered by hand. For merchandise, I use natural cashew lacquer for coloring, achieving a more refined, detailed, and lifelike finish. All pieces are entirely handmade. Whether it's a custom order or a workshop creation, each piece possesses its own unique color and texture, distinct, one-of-a-kind, truly irreplaceable. The materials are easy to care for and designed for longevity, making them a heartfelt gift for any occasion.
