His practice involves reexamining abstract elements that are unconsciously overlooked in everyday life, and making visible―through minimalist means―the perceptual foundations upon which they are constructed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHis work has been seen at many exhibitions, including: “Furniture and Drawer” (A-lab, Hyogo), “Woven Knot” (gallery chosun, Seoul), “not a house” (MBL Architectes, Paris), “VOCA 2024” (The Ueno Royal Museum, Tokyo), “Soft Territory” (Shiga Museum of Art, Shiga).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"untitled-038-br-soshi-matsunobe","title":"Cliff Wall｜017\u003cbr\u003eSoshi Matsunobe","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn this series, Matsunobe uses dry, unused clay that had been sitting forgotten in a ceramics studio in Shigaraki, giving it new life. The concept is to return the clay to the landscape.

Unglazed, the pieces are fired at a low temperature of around 1000°C, then finished with linseed oil, lending the clay’s natural texture a quiet depth.
