ABOUT

Wool Sculptor / Artist
Terumi Ohta

Creation is my passion. I am always conscious of creating works that are infinitely lifelike, down to the smallest detail.　I create each piece of work with an awareness not only of its surface realism, but also of the invisible energy that overflows from within the work and from behind the eyes.

※Individual pet custom commisions are now closed.

ART WORKS

Each piece I work on is meticulously and entirely by hand. In order to create a truly lifelike expression, I patiently mix many colors of wool and I spend a lot of time devising ways to create the texture.
For this reason, it takes a considerable amount of time to complete a piece. In addition to three-dimensional works, I also use frames and ceramics to create completely original designs.
I also use my experience of “Ikebana” to create works of art from my own unique worldview.
I create each piece with an awareness of not only the reality on the surface, but also the invisible energy that overflows from within the work and behind the eyes.
