Project Outline

Polishing the surface of a Dorodango makes the fine clay particles align and reflect light in a certain direction, making it appear shiny and bright. Polycrystalline, soft, and spherical Dorodango is a very difficult material to polish, and in the Mipox X Challenge Program, participants will try their hand at making Dorodango by combining the skills cultivated by Mipox, a professional polisher, with the creative ideas of the participants. In a special program, participants will be able to experience the world of polishing, which is actually an active part of our daily lives, and also try their hand at polishing dorodango.
