Work Details
This work expresses my desire to return to the beginning and once again approach this character with a sense of curiosity and openness. Perhaps the character is quietly watching us from afar, looking through the screen. This work captures the subtle distance between the character and ourselves, and the feeling of being watched from the other side.This work is dedicated to achieving a clean and precise surface, with no visible brushstrokes. The smooth, refined texture of the painting is one of its most distinctive and appealing qualities.

Hajikaku-chan is a character that reflects the discomfort or desire towards my gender; beginning with drawing, I continue to depict my internal conflict through Hajikaku-chan, gaining hints from the distance between myself and the character. In my practice, I pay particular attention to the expression of lines that derives from drawing, and the gradation characteristic to oil paints.
My feelings of admiration, desire and helplessness towards gender, became rooted deeply inside of me and began to have a shape without my knowing. These then manifested as a character – this is Hajikaku-chan. In the unstable understanding and familiarity, that Hajikaku-chan is a complete stranger although somewhat resembling of myself, by confronting it, I give shape to the irrepressible feelings that are inside of me.
Actively producing, organizing, and designing visual identities for solo and group exhibitions.
