Talk event "Life and Crafts"
Hiroyuki Horihata and Makiko Sekiguchi (matohu designers) x Masashi Shimura (representative of Atelier Shimura)

All crafts begin with life. Life is transitory. We are being asked how to artistically reincarnate life and breathe life into "things." In this talk event, we will explore from each of our perspectives what kind of craftsmanship connects to the deep roots of life.
