Yutaka Minegishi

Yutaka Minegishi is a Japanese artist living in Munich Germany for the last 27 years.

I make rings out of one single solid piece of material.
I neither draw nor create models before
working the final material, even when using
expensive materials like amber or ruby. I
try not to have an image of the finished
piece in my mind. I try to find the best form
during the carving process.
A Japanese master once told me that the
most beautiful form appears just once
during carving. You should neither go too
far nor stop too soon.
