Painting with Original Paints Made from Natural Stones

About this event

A rare experience discovering the joy of creating paints from nature around you. Participants search for stones themselves around "Takumi no Sato" and crush them finely to make original paints. After creating artwork on washi Japanese paper using the finished paints, participants visit the studio of Japanese painter Yuka Kishigami, who serves as the guide. Attendees can also hear stories behind artwork creation and life in Kawakami Village, making this a program where one can become close with nature and art. Attending in clothes that can get dirty and easy-to-walk shoes is recommended.
