Editorial Committee

PhD｜Associate Professor, Kyoto University of the Arts, Japan.

Graduate School Arts Studies, Kyoto University of the Arts. He is the tenth generation in a line of Edo maki-e artists (lacquer artists who specialize in sprinkled gold techniques), so he was exposed to lacquer from a very young age. His family had him ingest the raw resin from an early age to develop immunity, and he made works of engraved lacquer (chinkin) when he was still in primary school. After graduating from Japanese high school, he studied in China at the Tsinghua University Academy of Arts & Design, where he focused on metal works, ceramics and Chinese language and crafts history. After obtaining his doctoral degree, he taught lacquer history in China before 2018, when he returned to Japan to focus on his career as an artist. Since then, he made many smaller and larger sized lacquer sculptures in the ‘dry lacquer’ technique and exhibited at several contemporary crafts exhibitions, including Nitten (Japan Fine Arts Exhibition), for which he received several awards. Whilst making his own works, he continues to do research and contribute to international exchange.

Now: Graduate School Arts Studies, Kyoto University of the Arts.

JACAC Team's Commitment

Our commitment extends beyond mere acknowledgment of diverse fields; we actively seek to integrate methodologies and insights from various disciplines. This creates a rich intellectual ecosystem where innovative ideas can flourish and cross-pollinate across traditional academic boundaries.

Collaborative Philosophy

Our editorial committee operates on the principle that the most impactful research emerges from collaborative thinking. We facilitate ongoing dialogue between editors from different specializations to ensure comprehensive evaluation of submissions.

This collaborative approach allows us to identify groundbreaking work that might be overlooked in more traditionally siloed review processes. We pride ourselves on recognizing the potential of research that bridges multiple fields and addresses complex problems from multiple angles.

Risks of Specialization

Broad perspectives are essential for well-rounded research. By integrating diverse viewpoints, we can avoid biases and develop more nuanced understandings of complex phenomena.
