The shape of a tree is created by the free movement of its branches. The shape was achieved by carving out a deep and expansive internal space.--TREE / W130×H120×D110 mm / 269 g樹形は枝々の自由な動...

The branches have been carved little by little to represent their freedom and bold movement. Not only do I want to continue carving them in more detail, but there are still two more branches that m...

It's a difficult question to decide when and how to separate the branches. Once they're separated, I can't carve as boldly as I would like. The first of the three sections has already been separate...

The branches have not yet been separated, but the overall picture has finally begun to move freely. I always get some calluses on the palm of my right hand, but this is the first time I have ever h...

The back side is being carved. I have placed a rag down to stabilize the shape which is now approaching a sphere. I'm carving while adjusting my strength, hoping that the parts that have already be...

The first of the branches which move freely is almost carved, and at the same time the internal space is gradually expanding. As the flat areas decreases, it'll become more difficult to carve, but ...

The branches are gradually becoming more free to move around in the space, undulating back and forth, left and right.空間の中で、前後左右にうねらせながら枝々が少しずつ自由な動きを見せつつあります。

Depending on the species and its design, I am always exploring how best to proceed with the carving. When I am able to see the shining light on the other side of the space, it reminds me of th...

Every time I hit it, I realize that I have returned to the hard, tough zelkova wood. However, rather than the strong impact on my arm, I am captivated by the beautiful texture and grain that are un...

It is a polyhedron with the damaged sapwood removed which cannot be used. Would it be possible for me to represent the strong yet airy expression of a tree blown by the wind using this hard zelkova...

The branches dance freely in the space, but then come together at the top. The greater the freedom, the richer the expressions of light and shadow.--SPACE / W170×H255×D125 mm / 664 g枝々が空間の中...

The bottom part goes against the grain of the wood, so it is difficult not only when shaping it but also when finishing it to make it smooth. However, I carve it with respect, thinking about how it...

Finally, I have reached the finishing stage. The more intricate the shape, and the more open spaces there are, the larger the overall surface area will be, and the more difficult it is to reach wit...

I want the branches to dance with light, graceful movements. But I must not break or damage them in order to do so.By observing the movement of the wood grain, I continue to go through trial and er...

As the inner space becomes wider, the four pieces, each with its own undulating and twisting shape, began to move freely and independently.内部空間を広くなってくると、それぞれに起伏と捻りを持たせた...
