Kumonoie solo exhibition has successfully concluded.
It was a whirlwind two weeks.
Meeting everyone and sharing conversations was truly invaluable. I am filled with gratitude.
To all who attended, the staff at Gallery 5610, my friend who directed the collection book, and my friends who assisted with reception preparations, I am truly, truly grateful for all the help.
Cloisonne remains aniche genre. I hope to share my knowledge with many students so that more artists can flourish in this field.
Thank you very much.
See you in Poland in May!

“Opera realizzata in occasione della Causa di beatificazione
di don Giovanni Battista Sidoti, Chosuke e Haru e donate all’Arcidiocesi di Palermo”
The Archbishop of Palermo commissioned me to create this work to commemorate the beatification of Don Giovanni Battista Sidoti, Chousuke and Haru, and I am donating this piece to the Archdiocese of Palermo
On the surface of the main part, silver lines were used to draw wave patterns, ships, fish, deer on Yakushima Island and blue birds flying freely in the sky.
Father Sidoti's name was drawn in thick 18-carat gold lines, while the names Chousuke and Haru were drawn in Chinese characters on gold leaf.
The beads were made with glass burner work and wired cloisonné on semi-magnetic clay.
And on the reverse side there is the blue sky and clouds of Palermo and a small house made of crystal and silver parts on a small cloud of silver.
The silver part of the little house can be filled with bones.

Conversation International exhibition of enamel on metal
21 May - 7 November 2022
The Archangels Gabriel and Michael were damaged during transport: the curators, in agreement with the artist, have nevertheless chosen to exhibit them in order to show Aya Iwata's technical know-how and sources of inspiration. The rounded curves and pastel colors of these two pieces convey a certain poetry.
