[Profile] Born in Aichi Prefecture in 1983, after graduating from the Department of International Culture at Kyoto Prefectural University, I worked as a bookstore clerk specializing in art, architecture, humanities, psychology, and education books. Later, I worked at a café and an art-focused bookstore. I gained experience in event sales and mechanical work. In 2020, I opened an online store called "POLKE," specializing in handmade fisherman's caps. At the end of the same year, I started attending a pottery class and joined a rental studio in Toki City, Gifu Prefecture, where I became independent. At the end of 2021, I launched the brand "kōrin." I am involved in pottery making, customer service at events and on the e-commerce site, creating artwork for images and videos, and sound design using DTM. I am active mainly in craft markets, pop-up shops, and gallery exhibitions. My passion lies in jazz. It Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing.
