[3] "Technology and Mind" Seminar "Dowall Experience"

When I look at the Sakan plasterers craftsman, I move the mortar lightly, and in an instant a flat wall finishes. But it’s not something you can actually try. Why don't you learn from a professional and experience wall painting? Move the trowel to a certain degree while feeling the weight of the soil. Let's experience the feeling of painting with your body.

Date and time Sunday, September 4, 2016 13:00 ~ (You can experience it at any time)

[4] Lecture “Practical Sakan plasterers Study – Preparation for Space”

Makoto Kuzumi, who worked in Sakan plasterers at the age of 20 and mastered a wide range of techniques, still moved to Kyoto to perfect his traditional method work. In Kyoto, technology was natural, and it was a world where harmony was required. The knowledge of Sakan plasterers is not enough, but it is important to be familiar with other tasks and materials, and to see what is required there. How can I behave freely without being bound even though I know tradition? Let me tell you about Mr. Kusumi's challenge.
