Dew Hara is a product of his environment… literally. Makers in his hometown of Seki, Japan, are famous for designing and producing some of the best fine kitchen cutlery in the world. He also carries the world-famous Hara name; his father, Koji Hara, is one of the most respected designers alive. Dew’s work stands solidly on its own, though- East and West, tradition and innovation, utility and beauty, straight lines and curves—opposing elements are brought together through the artist's sensibility to create harmonious works. Since his debut, he has garnered attention for a unique style that might well be described as the "beauty of fusion."
