KAKERA, a material brand by CACL Co., Ltd. of Nomi, Ishikawa, has created the main entrance art object, "Between Us," for the retreat hotel "FUTATABI FUTABA FUKUSHIMA," scheduled to open on June 1 in Futaba, Fukushima. The piece was made using a combination of ceramic fragments from Fukushima's "Obori Soma ware," affected by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, and Ishikawa's "Kutani ware," damaged in the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake. By regenerating and fusing these "fragments" born from different disasters, the artwork symbolizes hope for the region's future and the resilience of people supporting each other through hardship.
