Nakata practices the repertory of Japanese ceramicist, but does not let himself be bound solely by tradition.

While liberal in the influences on his ceramic forms, Nakata often uses a traditional tobiganna chisel tool to achieve a chattering effect on the surface of his work. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA Japanese mortar is called a suribachi.
