About

これまで「自然」を対象に、特に「水」や「風」の存在に主眼を置いて制作してきた。
それは東日本を襲った大地震、そして津波の恐ろしさを目の当たりにしたところから始まった。
「自然」は人にとってなくてはならない存在であり、多大な恩恵を与える一方、残酷で恐ろしい側面も持つ。
その二面性はまさに表裏一体であると言えるのではないだろうか。
「自然」とはー。その「本質」に迫りたいと願い、永遠の問いを通して、描く。
自身で体感したことをきっかけに自然の力を借りながら出来上がった作品と対峙した時に、初めて自分の現在位置を知ることができるのかも知れない。

My artistic practice has centered on depicting “nature,” with a particular focus on the presence of “water” and “wind.”
This exploration began after witnessing the devastating Great East Japan Earthquake and the terrifying power of the ensuing tsunami.
Nature is an essential force for humanity, offering vast blessings while also possessing a cruel and fearsome side.
This duality is inherently intertwined, two sides of the same coin.
What is “nature”? I aspire to delve into its essence through endless questioning and creation.
Perhaps it is only when I confront the works, shaped with the power of nature and born from my own experiences, that I can truly understand where I stand in the present.
