In Okinawa, it was customary for roof artisans to craft plaster shisa as a gesture of gratitude to homeowners, using leftover tiles and plaster.
This piece is a fragment of an ancient plaster shisa's head, exhibiting a remarkably gentle and intriguing expression. Imagining it perched atop a roof evokes a profound sense of connection. How delightful it would be as an object of art.
