Fire, ash, and time.

Oxidation and ash drift freely across the surface—
a quiet landscape shaped by fire, chance, and restraint.

Ryuta Fukumura’s work invites pause:
to look closer, to reflect, to slow the moment.

ARAS Pop-Up Begins This Week!
June 19–20 | Come Meet the Makers

Rooted in the quiet tradition of Ishikawa, Ishikawa Resin Industry was founded in 1949 in Kaga—a region shaped by snow, craftsmanship, and time. In winter, when the land rests, families would gather indoors to carve wood and lacquer by hand. That seasonal rhythm—marked by patience, care, and precision—continues to inform their work today.

Originally makers of wooden bases for traditional lacquerware, the company evolved with intention, turning to resin—a lightweight, durable material once developed for aerospace engineering. In 2020, ARAS was born, introducing thoughtfully designed collections like Cedar Bark and Sea Mineral.

The result is a thoughtful fusion: advanced materials with the soul of Japanese design. Unbreakable, quietly artful, and crafted to elevate everyday rituals.

Join us at ARJ Los Angeles to discover the new collection launching during the pop-up and meet the visionaries behind the work.
