"Mizutamaten" In the summer of Kamakura, the warm weather of Mizutama colors the city. My works of pulp art and washi art were exhibited at the Kamakura Sculpture Museum. We displayed it using Japanese paper dyed according to the color of Mizutamaten so that the work could be seen beautifully from the wide window. I was happy that everyone at the Kamakura Sculpture Museum and craftsmen kindly welcomed me from different genres. Even after the Mizutamaten period, they held a special exhibition with the craftsmen of Kamakura carving, and many people saw the works. Thank you very much. The Kamakura Sculpture Museum is about a 5-minute walk from Enoden Wadazuka Station toward the sea. In the hall, works elaborate by craftsmen are exhibited and sold. You can also experience it if you make a reservation.

Kintsugi is a traditional restoration technique of Japan. I've been interested in trying it for a long time, but I thought it was a technology that used lacquer and had high hurdles. This summer, the Kamakura Sculpture Museum was indebted to Enoden's "Mizutamaten" held in Kamakura. Kamakura carving experiences are held regularly, but they hold a kintsugi class once a month, so I applied without hesitation. A pulp art plate made by transferring the texture of pulped paper to clay, the lid of the teapot that my mother liked and used, the ceramic teacup that my late master bought for me because it was a little chipped and I used it carefully with glue ... Things that have been chipped or broken even if you use them carefully, and things that you want to repair when Kintsugi is made, are close to you. In the monthly class, you can learn how to make useful tools for kintsugi, so it is very informative and fun. While being impressed by the ideas of the people of the past, such as mixing lacquer and flour to glue the applied parts, I thought about the warm hearts of the ancient Japan people who cherish things. The teacher told me that this would be what would happen if I did this, but I wanted to go this far, so I was in a little hurry to work on it, and it turned out to be a sure thing, so I reflected a little. Calm down Be polite While enjoying the process of repairing While cherishing the hearts of Japan, wabi-sabi

Almost every spot from where Fujisan is visible seems picturesque to me whether it is my workplace or rooftop of my home or any tourist spot. I visited hakone in last week and it was 1st trip to Hakone but this trip was unforgettable. The scenic view of Mount Fuji, the mountains covers with greenary and fall colors, the scenic view lake ashi and the pirate ship makes the whole surrounding very beautiful. Unfortunately the day was cloudy still luckily the majestic mount Fuji was visible clearly . It's was very picturesque and scenic spot. This photo was taken from Onshi Hakone park.
