クリエーター科の課題研究公表会が２１日に行われました。アカデミーでの２年間の集大成です。発表時間は１人２０分。他の分野の学生たちにも理解できるよう、分かりやすく、的を絞って発表しなければならないので、発表できるのは２年間学んできたことのごく一部です。それでも中身の濃い発表が並び、これから社会に出て行くにふさわしい技術と知識を身につけてきたことをうかがわせます。
The final presentation of graduation theses by postgraduate students took place on 21st Feb.
It is a compilation of their two years of study at Gifu Academy. Each students was given 20 minutes for their presentation. It is only a small part of their study as they have to summarise it so that the students of other department can understand. Still each presentation was substantial and rich in quality. They convinced us that they have now got enough technique and knowledge to graduate from the college.
ものづくり研究会の学生たちはスライドショーに加え、会場にこれまでつくった作品をたくさん展示しました。実物を見てもらえるというのは、他の学部にはできない、ものづくりの強みですね。
The students of the Craft and Furniture Making Dept. exhibited many of their works as well as slideshows. It is an advantage of our department: the real work is often more effective than any words.
新川さんは額縁、久野さんはものづくり講座を運営しながら改良を重ねた下駄やモビール、桑村君は人力のろくろとそれらを使ってつくった挽きもの作品。
Kazue Shinkawa exhibited her picture frames. Haruyo Kuno showed us her mobile sculptures and Japanese wooden sandals which she developed by running a series of woodworking workshop to the public. Yasuhiko Kuwamura's work is his man-powered lathes and various turned pieces.
来賓として２年間にわたってご指導いただいた木工家の旭逸也さんを迎え、それぞれの研究に対して温かいコメントもいただきました。
We invited Mr. Itsuya Asahi, a woodworker who taught them for two years, as a guest judge. He gave warm and encouraging comments to each students.
社会へ出てからも、もっともっとたくさんのことを学んで行かなければなりませんが、この日全教官・学生を前に発表したことはきっとこれからの糧になるはず。ひとまずお疲れさま。そしてさらに前進を。
There are still a lot to learn for each of them even after graduating from here. But today's achievement will give them confidence in the real world. Well done and keep on going!
