Today, we are living in a Global age, a progressive time for humanity as a whole as we shed our arbitrary differences. However, our vast mutual efforts have also repercussions for the planet in the eradication of our environment and a subsequent loss of awareness of the beauty of the natural world.
Still my Japanese origin is very important to me and through my imagination and creative endeavors, I inevitably reflect my culture. My paintings are based on the mystery of life, death and love and I feel that the past, the present and the future are like a circle all connecting as one. All of my lifetime efforts, vision and passion in the making of my work are based on that concept.
