About
URUSHI PROJECT is a collective work by Jun’ichiro Ishii, Ryuji Onari, and Mizuki Kajihara. The project focuses on the relationship between humans and nature through the work of traditional “lacquer scrapers.
In traditional lacquer harvesting, every last drop of sap is extracted from an urushitree, but the tree itself is not destroyed until the very end so that it can regenerate again later. This lifestyle that is seemingly in close contact with the life force of the forest may contain some clues for the future of our society.
* No reservation required / Admission free
