BIO
Contemporary artist based in Tokyo, Japan.
“My work is a philosophical exploration that traverses diverse materials through the lens of Japanese aesthetics, reimagining the subtle discomforts of contemporary life.”
The artist develops multimedia expressions that traverse lifescapes, organic materials, and technology, all rooted in a distinctly Japanese sensibility. Through deep introspection, their work seeks to shift the viewer’s perspective and perception.
After pausing their practice in 2009 to focus on the service-oriented application of art, they returned in 2024 and received two grand prizes in Japan. In the following year, their work gained international recognition. Currently, they are exploring new relationships with society through collaborations with educational institutions and nonprofit organizations.
