Collection: Jiro Kamata

Jiro Kamata hails from a long family tradition of goldsmithing in Hirosaki, Japan. After training at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich from 2000-2006, Kamata went on to become assistant professor at the same institution until 2015. Jiro has developed a practice in which he applies highly developed techniques to non-traditional materials – primarily lenses of various types, from eyeglasses to camera lenses.
