Credentials
- Local Artist
- Works on commission
I grew up in the peaceful countryside of Japan.
My early years in Kyoto and South Korea deepened my interest in visual and auditory arts, forming the foundation of my creative path.
After moving to Tokyo, I worked across diverse fields—travel, culture, arts, human resources, food service, advertising, and public administration during the pandemic. Through twelve career transitions, I was supported by many generous individuals, and the quiet memory of these encounters continues to guide my practice.
In 2014, I began studying photography while working full-time, drawn to urban stillness, everyday fragments, and the beauty found in chance moments.
During the pandemic, I created collage works layering past and present photographs, an intimate dialogue with silence and time.
Since 2023, I have been exhibiting and selling my works internationally, walking a single thread that connects past, present, and future.
