Atelier's Window
I began working as a house painter, after graduating from high school.
My master, who was 60 years old, singing naniwa-bushi, painted fast and well, although he moved leisurely.
I was fascinated and carried away by the way he uses a brush without needless movement.
Afterwards, my object of fascination changed to the way of using brushes and spatulas by Urushi artists, and I entered into a life of an apprentice in Kiso (Nagano Pref.).
One day, I asked my master the reason why he didn't check the bowls I painted.
He said instantly "There is no need for it, if I only see you working from behind".
After I was independent, I became able to concentrate without realizing the eyes of other people, while, at the same time, tension was lost.
YouTube would give me a comfortable tension, just as when I am seen through an atelier window.
Both to see and to be seen bring up an artisan.

工房の窓
高校を卒業してはじめたペンキ屋のアルバイト。
還暦を迎えた親方は浪花節をひねりながら悠然
とした身のこなしでありながら塗りは速くてきれい、
無駄のない刷毛さばきに見惚れ憧れた。
その後その憧れは漆職人の刷毛さばき、箆さば
きへと向き、木曽での修行時代を迎えた。
ある日、私が塗った椀をチェックしない訳を師匠に
訊くと「ものを見なくても後姿を見ればわかる」と一喝。
独立して密室で一人で仕事をしていると他人の目を
気にせず集中できる半面、緊張感は失われていた。
Youtubeに動画を配信することは、工房の窓越し
に仕事を見られることと同様に、心地よい緊張感を
私に与えてくれることでしょう。
見ることと見られることが職人を育てます。
