Junichiro is an artist who seeks "whereabouts of life and sign of

wood" through his artwork.

He uses "Sashimono-giho (Japanese joinery woodworking joints)" which

is combining various types of wood together without using nails, spikes

and pegs. The integration of his artistic sense, and "technique" and

"wood" create a new shape with life.

At his Master of Crafts at Tokyo University of the Art, he won

"Harada Prize" and in this March, his graduation is coming.

His style is a unique process of building up instant parts with a

mixture of high skilled "Sashimono-giho" and his own sense.
