Abstract:

Murphy explores the work of Akira Satake of Swannanoa, who excels in both pottery and music. He has a dedicated following in both pursuits. He is ten years into his pottery career, with gallery exhibits in Asheville and New York City's elite Calvin-Morris Gallery, and musically he is a master of the Japanese banjo, called a shamisen.
