By borrowing the power of materials and patterns and combining them into my creations, the blurry images in my mind are becoming a single form,
Just as I convey my thoughts through letters, words, and sometimes even actions, I hope to convey my thoughts through the creation of my work.
The main material is cypress wood, which is then painted and colored to create pieces by combining human and animal patterns with patterns that remind me of things I personally want to convey or convey, such as "flowers", "caudal fins" and "wings".
In our daily life, we tend to become blurred, but those emotions that accumulate in our hearts and never disappear are emotions we all have, so I want to turn it into a work.
