Описание к видео Murose Kazumi on his early inspiration and the importance of ‘Living National Treasures’

Murose Kazumi is recognised in Japan as a ‘Living National Treasure’ for his accomplishments in the field of maki-e; a technique in which powdered gold and or other precious metals are sprinkled onto urushi (Japanese lacquer) items to create pictures and patterns.

In this video interview, Murose explains how his father ignited his love of urushi and how his dedication to the craft was further guided by ‘the god of urushi’. He also discusses what it means to be a ‘Living National Treasure’, and the importance of passing on the skills of urushi and other crafts to the next generation.
