Densaburou Oku

I am Densaburou Oku. I am doing glass sculptures. I came to the United States fifteen years ago already. I am doing art stuff (laughter), and I have my feeling. I make art to catch and express feeling.

Fifteen years ago I left Kagoshima, Japan, and I came to Bucks County, USA, Pennsylvania. Each place I have known grows a different stream. I am now at the point where I am in my life and my time here in this community. This situation is a collection of my work over these years -- not looking back, but the other point, reflecting forward.
