Bio
Highest education: Edogawa University
Since high school, he has been going to a psychiatrist for treatment, but he has not recovered for over 10 years and continues to take drug therapy. After graduating from university, he entered Australia, but his psychological problems worsened and he spent 9 months in a condominium. After returning to Japan, he continued the different treatment he had received in Australia, and gradually entered the recovery phase of depression. Around 2023, he began to recover and wanted to interact with people, and felt joy as he realized that he had recovered from depression.
He started posting his works on Instagram after entering Australia, and in 2025 it will be exactly 10 years since his arrival in Australia. He does not use a dedicated large camera, but takes pictures with a smartphone camera, and posts them after editing them using a smartphone app.
Digital noise is also a feature of his works, and he expresses the emptiness and depressed suffering that many people also suffer from through composition and color gradation, and appeals to the fact that image recognition is an interaction caused by the excitation of retinal cells, along with the digital noise that becomes visible by enlarging the image.
