Koji Hatakeyama employs bronze working techniques developed in ancient Mesopotamia to create conceptual vessels for the 21st century. He refers to bronze as a material with memories of a thousand years. The patterns that appear on the surface of his works result from various chemical reactions; some have the appearance of blazing flames while others possess a mysterious coloring that enchants the viewer into wondering if perhaps the surface has weathered through hundreds of years of rich history.
