Using his own memories and images as clues, he continues to create mental landscapes that he calls "places in the middle of nowhere."In search of a space with tranquility and depth, I research the materials, techniques, and expressive possibilities of Japanese paintings through production practice.In recent years, he has been exploring new spatial expressions by approaching hemp paper, the main support for Japanese paintings, from classic techniques such as ``back coloring'' and ``dyed paper.''
