JAPANESE MASKS




Japanese Masks
"The specialty Kogaku masks. Nara is one of the oldest cities in Japan in which Japanese culture was founded. When you step aside into a little footpath from the main streets, it is very quiet. The creator of these masks is Gyokusen Ishizu. He lives and work in such a place with the Holy Spirits of Old Nara. Gyokusen Ishizu was born in mask creator’s family. Now he is in the third generation. In his studio, there are many works of the first Gyokusen. “Mask is like mirror which reflects your mind.”
