I create works with the theme of reincarnation. I depict a world in which animals and plants that represent the natural world, noise and artifacts
that symbolize human society are mixed. By collaging watercolors, photos, and textures, these expresses that everything’ s circulating together
in a big tide. I think everything is in the process of decline and regeneration, and I find value in that process. In a modern society where the true
value tends to be hard to see, I create works by thinking about what I need to do.from Seian University of Art and Design ,Japan
