I think about “seeing is living,” and create paintings that relive.

It is created by considering the relationship between the senses received from things and visual perception such as point of view and gaze.

I pick up what I feel from my hectic days and drop it on the screen.

The scene that appears right in front of me is a trivial part of everyday life, but I don't take for granted the days that pass for granted. There are times when my heart is shaken by the sight of various things overlapping. It is something you can only feel because you are alive, and it makes you feel that you are alive.

By pictorially expressing the relationship between the existence of invisible things such as mind and senses and vision, such as sight and point of view, we are able to better recognize this world and recapture seeing things. I want to express living and “seeing.”
