[ Venue ] arflex Osaka 

Regarding the crystal series, as a symbol of the rich diversity of the world, I draw pictures using minerals as motifs that can be seen in various ways by transmitted light and reflected light. Beginning with a sketch painting, I repeatedly deconstructed and reconstructed the image in multiple steps. I recapture the view reflected in my eyes. I believe that the ongoing movement will be the force that keeps the world generating and changing. The exhibited works are one of fruits of my thoughts and contain my wish for a better world.

 

[ Venue ] ACTUS Shinsaibashi 

Sight series consists of drawings depicting scenes of childbirth and childcare on the reverse side os handmade paper with alum water (Dōsa liguid). It was a place filled with the sparkle of life and happiness, yet accompanied by struggles. It was a fresh and intense experience for me as I had only seen childbirth and childcare from the social side until then. It made me curious about the relationship and definitions between society and childbirth/childcare. I want to face closely those that may not be clearly visible but certainly exist.
