"By understanding and accepting the impermanence and insubstantiality of this world, we can control our cravings so that we can alleviate our suffering”. I am inspired by Buddha's philosophy and the Japanese aesthetics of Wabi-Sabi (imperfection) and mono no aware (compassionate heart).

Through my artwork,I convey that compassion is a meaningful solution to ease craving. I focus on personal desires and suffering, and on people and things that are forced to suffer in order to satisfy the greed of others.Fear and disgust are also causes of suffering. I work on finding new perspectives and turning negative emotions into positive ones to help people let go of negative emotions.

Observing various materials around me and using them, I try to create innovative 2D/3D work including sculptures, garments and objects based on my concepts. Commanding my accumulated knowledge about various craft techniques including dress making, Yuzen kimono dyeing, Japanese embroidery, and weaving , I work being freed from conventional consensus. Choice of materials are based on the care about the impact on our environment.
