Born 1971.
Sikoku Island, Japan
I am a Japanese-born sculptor working to create sculptural and installation pieces relating to physical spaces. I create spaces where viewers senses transcend sight, experimenting the space in an individual way thus becoming a whole with the installation. I am also interested in combining conventional and new materials towards the creation of dynamic installation: cross-cultural, multi-faceted contemporary sculptural forms that reflect and challenge our specific time, place, culture, and social environment.

My work reflects how time and space change in synch with our constantly evolving environment. I consider both the macro and micro worlds and how they shift within the internal, human and subjective perspective, how they become increasingly confused, chaotic and full of turmoil. My work questions the tenuous connection between the two worlds; the internal subjective self and the external world of cultural faade.
