“We find the richness and diversity from various perspectives from the color of life, and what is living now and what happiness and richness are for each person. Or, what can we see and feel by expanding to the outside (universe) of the earth? Every day I am searching for a work production that can make me think about such things. I will probably continue to live in Japan with my beloved family and send out works based on the theme of the beauty of Japanese nature and life both domestically and internationally.”

BIO AND FAMILY LINEAGE:
My grandfather was an oil landscape painter and his father was a cosmetic packaging designer. So expressing something has been a very familiar act since I was a child.
