After graduating university, Kawakami Shin perfected his craft at a special vocational school for ceramics making in Aichi, and, from 1980, under the guidance of potter Suzuki Goro. He opened his kiln in Gujo Hachiman, Gifu that same year, followed by another kiln the next year in the village of Wara.
Further opening a cellar kiln in 1998 in Nyukawa Village, he has ever since been actively holding solo exhibitions at galleries in his home prefecture of Gifu and the Chubu region, and has continued to passionately create works of art.
