Born 1957 in Tokyo. His father was a carver in temples and shrines.
Learned Buddhist sculpture from Nishimura Fusazo 西村房蔵 and Yamamoto Zui-Un 山本瑞雲 (やまもとずいうん).

Became independent in 1989.
In 1997 he took the name of his father, So-Un 崇雲.

"Buddha scultures do not allow for so much artistic freedom of the artist. But there many are ways to show the depth and meaning of them."


Look at more statues by So-Un !
