Born in 1979. Since 2008, M.O. has been creating clay-based works at Work Center Toyonaka.
His subject matter includes corporate logos, magazine and TV show titles, manga scenes, and memorable phrases—familiar designs that he astonishingly re-creates in clay with remarkable precision. Once he has seen a logo or image and made it once, he no longer needs to look at it again. Relying entirely on memory, he is able to reproduce even fine proportions and minute details. His memory and modeling skills are truly extraordinary.
Using only his fingertips and no tools other than a spray bottle, he shapes each piece with remarkable speed, often completing a work in just 20 to 30 minutes.
However, these works are not preserved. At the end of each day, they are returned to their original clay form.
His creations are carefully documented by support staff at the facility, and since 2020, they have been shared via Instagram, conveying the vitality of each fleeting moment to viewers.
