■Ceramic Artist :Naoki Yamamoto
After working as a salaryman for 10 years, he entered the world of ceramics around age 30 through a pottery class he began attending. He immersed himself in creation while working part-time jobs and attending a training school. He later established a studio in his hometown and began working as an artist. Keeping the words “Works are created from within” close to his heart, he strives daily to create vessels that reflect the landscapes and atmosphere of nature, such as forests and skies, while living in harmony with nature.
