On October 5th I started my term as a research student at Tokyo University of the Arts. It feels great to be back in the studio after a 6 month hiatus, but it's taking a bit of time to get used to the role of full-time student again. I am currently experimenting with ball ground plates, and just started test printing last week.

The studio at the university is not spacious, however, everyone is very good at sharing the space there is.

Here are a few images of to get an idea. I have a personal desk, there is one offset press, 9 direct presses and some stones that generally remain untouched due to lack of space.
