About the Artist

Toru Kuranuki

Toru Kuranuki was born in Osaka in 1948. From an early age, he was drawn to the beauty of gemstones and minerals, a fascination that naturally led him into the world of nature and art. Over the past five decades, he has continued to devote himself to contemporary art.
