The strength and tenderness of the moment sprouting flowers' buds open up in nature... My works are made with daily thoughts to express such scenes of Mother Nature.

I currently make works centering on items for personal and open exhibitions. Although my works are based on my concept of "make what I want, however I like", creating them freely is extremely difficult. Struggling and suffering, I finally create a piece of work, only to start another enjoyable cycle as an artist over and over again.

It has been over twenty-some years since my first encounter with soil and flame. I myself am eagerly looking forward to seeing what kind of art works I will create, and what kind of paths I will be walking on.
