神奈川県湯河原に工房を構える村上圭一さん。
木の持つ個性に耳を傾け、時に荒々しい節や割れ、ヒビや虫喰いなども生かした作品。
丁寧な彫りを施し。漆や鉄媒染、オイルや蜜蝋など様々な手法で仕上げられた豊かな表情。
どっしりと構えた懐の深さと存在感のある作風は村上さんならではの世界観です。

Keiichi Murakami has his workshop in Yugawara, Kanagawa Prefecture.
Listening to the individuality of the wood, he makes the most of the rough knots, cracks, cracks, and insect bites that sometimes appear on the wood.
Careful carving is applied. The rich expression of his works is created by using various techniques such as lacquer, iron-dyeing, oil, and beeswax.
The style of his works, with its solid and deep nostalgia and presence, is unique to Mr. Murakami's world view.
