Kintsugi - Kenta Takeshige

Kenta, a talented restoration carpenter, shares with us his deep connection to wood, a bond that began in his childhood while playing in his grandmother’s old house, surrounded by nature. Through this article, we will learn more about his journey, from his pivotal encounter with a French restorer in France to his development as a craftsman in Belgium. Kenta explains how his mentor taught him that the essence of his craft lies not just in the wood itself, but in the harmony between light and darkness—an equilibrium that can only be truly understood by observing nature.

Filmmaker Dorian Rivière, alongside his talented team at PATCH PICTURES, has masterfully captured the essence and emotion of each moment in Kenta's creative process. Every detail comes to life through his lens, conveying the depth and passion surrounding this story.

Satoricha

Satoricha, the mysterious cat with a hat, is a figure that few have truly met, but many wonder who he really is... or if he even exists at all. Some claim to have seen him among the tea leaves at dusk, while others believe he’s just a legend tied to old stories of hospitality and shared moments. Yet, his presence is unmistakable: elegant, curious, and always one step ahead. No one knows exactly where he came from or what he seeks, but those who cross paths with him can’t help but feel there’s more behind that feline gaze and his hat full of secrets.
