” I create works using a variety of materials and techniques through the work of continuing, dividing, or reconsidering the passage of time and the placement of perspectives on everyday familiar objects and events.

“aroundthepot”, a three-dimensional one-stroke drawing that outlines the trajectory of the continuous movement of the viewpoint when looking at the still life motif on the table.

“Rock-scissors-paper”, which is a three-dimensional figure that connects the trajectory of the hand movement of ‘rock’, ‘scissors’, and ‘paper’ in a circular shape.

“Tsugitsugikintsugi”, a collection of tableware that is no longer used and put together by Kintsugi
* Kintsugi : a traditional Japanese art form, where broken porcelain or earthenware is repaired using resin or lacquer mixed with powdered and liquid gold.
