Your teacher
Hi! I’m Emi. I was born in Seto City, Aichi, one of Japan’s oldest pottery towns, known for its rich ceramic history and craftsmanship.I grew up in my grandmother’s hillside home, surrounded by traditional Japanese climbing kilns (noborigama) and generations of pottery-making traditions. Ceramics have always been a part of my life, and my love for Japanese craftsmanship began there.In 2024, I returned to Japan to study traditional Kintsugi under a Kintsugi master for approximately ten months. Since then, I’ve continued returning to Japan every summer to deepen my knowledge and refine my skills through advanced Kintsugi training.“Kintsugi gave me back something I didn’t know I had lost. It’s more than repairing what is broken—it’s about rediscovering beauty, strength, and a sense of wholeness.”Now based in Los Angeles, I share my passion for Kintsugi through my artwork and hands-on workshops. My beginner-friendly modern Kintsugi classes offer a welcoming introduction to this beautiful Japanese tradition, using accessible materials. No prior experience is needed.For me, Kintsugi is about more than restoring broken ceramics. It’s also about bringing people together.In a world where we spend so much time looking at screens, I believe there’s something special about gathering around a table, creating something with our hands, sharing stories, and connecting with one another.My hope is that you leave my workshop with more than a beautifully mended piece. I hope you take home a meaningful experience, a new connection, and a fresh appreciation for the beauty of imperfection.I look forward to meeting you, hearing your stories, and sharing a little piece of Japan with you.
