覗香 nozoko

In the art of incense (Kodo), fragrant aromas are drawn out by applying heat to aromatic wood without burning it. Utilizing this technique, I create an experience that gently encourages the subtle fragrances hidden in spices and familiar materials by applying heat. The warmth from controlled heaters gradually releases the fragrances hidden within materials, and this experience of enjoying the subtlety of gently drifting aromas becomes truly a magnifying glass for scents.
