About this listen

Maiko Tsutsumi studied furniture making and Japanese lacquer work in Kyoto before moving to London to study furniture design at the Royal College of Art and later completing her practice based PhD The Poetics of Everyday Objects. After leaving the furniture industry She was course leader role for MA Designer Maker at Camberwell College of Arts, until 2020, alongside making objects, curating exhibitions and writing.

She now works in her studio in Peckham, making objects from wood, ceramic and lacquer. We spoke about her approach to making, where it stems from and how it manifests now in a measured approach engaging deeply with the materials she works with and seeking certain qualities from it. We weren't going to talk about kintsugi, and then ended up talking about it anyway!
