Concept

I have a strong interest in the material of fabric.
With my subconscious and time as themes, I depict creatures with four limbs, horizons, and the light of life on highly elastic fabrics.
I create works by parasitically adapting and decorating flexible fabric to objects, transforming them into new and unique forms.

While creating planar works and installations,
In recent years, I have been attempting to create works that move between three-dimensional wrapping of fabric and planar works that can be viewed from all 360 degrees.
