Miyashita zenji biography of barack
While teaching at the university as a part-time instructor from 1966 to 1985, he also interacted with and was inspired by sculpturally focused masters Yagi Kazuo, Suzuki Osamu, and Kiyomizu Kyūbey. Miyashita was affiliated with Seitōkai and the Nitten group, exhibiting in their annual competitions, which he won 18 times.
His works have been included in exhibitions throughout the world and acquired by major museums in Japan, the US, and Europe.
Using a saidei (colored-clay overlay) technique, Miyashita applied extremely thin layers of delicately gradated colored clay in irregular bands to cover the surface of each sculptural vessel or form, transforming the surfaces into distant hills, drifting clouds or rolling waves.
