Jo Nagasaka (JP)

Good-Look Wood

juillet 8th – juillet 14th 2018

The Workshop

“Udukuri” is a Japanese traditional craft technique highlighting the beauty of wood by polishing and leaving the wood grain as pattern.
“Tsugaru Lacquer” is a traditional Japanese lacquer ware. It is at first applied to the uneven wood surface and then some layers of colour are added. After polishing the surface flat, you are getting a coloured grain pattern on a smooth surface.
In this workshop you are going to learn both traditional techniques and combine them in a fusion that we have coined “ColoRing”. This new method featuring the wood grain while offering its uneven surface coloured was published for the first time at Milano’s Salone del Mobile in 2013.
