How 6 Traditional Japanese Crafts Are Made

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

"Shokunin", which means "craftsmen" or "Meister", is a commonly used word for those who perfect their field of expertise, whether it's a sushi chef, traditional arts maker, furniture maker, etc. The Shokunins are one of the most respected types of people in Japan, definitely much more respected than politicians XD

It's another world. Why don't we value our few remaining master craftsmen like this in the West? The traditions and methods are being lost. It's so sad. This video is beautiful. I'd happily watch an hour on each of the crafts featured.

I must visit Japan! I am completely in awe of these traditions.

For me, painting is a way to forget life. It is a cry in the night, a strangled laugh. I like to draw whatever think and feel.

Amazing skills that deserve to be seen. Thank you for that. Just one thing though. Could you make the text last longer bc I struggled to read it in time and kept having to rewind to read it again.

[@LoveHK_.]

[@macberry4048]

I love how the Japanese seek perfection but I wish they would seek perfection in modern technologies like making the perfect robot or the perfect smartphone
