I paint with the feeling of the universal beauty that I want to look at from the flowers and birds around me, from the universe, and from the passing of time. When I look at a flower blooming at my feet, if I imagine the vastness and size of the universe, I realize that I am looking at the preciousness of this moment in time. I want to touch the relationship, technique, and sensitivity that nature and people have cultivated over a long period of time by looking at the strong, soft, and beautiful Japanese paper that contains light. I think it is my role as a painter to continue to search for the form of beauty and prayer within me while being guided by nature and materials.

I use metal forging and engraving techniques. I cut out animals and ordinary scenes from everyday life and make them into works of art. I hope you can feel the fascination of metal materials.
