Glass Sculpture / height 9.5cm

Using a glassblowing technique called "pin blow," Masaki Kusada creates exquisite and functional glassware. His "Jizazou" sculptures, however, are pieces he makes only when he feels inspired. Standing before a Jizazou, one can reflect inwardly, meditate, or simply find a sense of calm.
