Work Details
Recognizing only good in light is an ignorant movement of mind that is fragmentary, dissociative, and biased towards duality. By reintegrating light and shadow, people become perfect within themselves, and both polarities are integrated into one. It's darkness, silence, and space, and we were born from there. Shadows are the foundation of our existence, support, nourishment, life force, and perfection. A shadow is a denied light. The shadow referred to here means everything that has been denied, rejected, and censored since time immemorial, that is, everything since the first judgment that defined what is wrong, evil, negative, condemnable, wrong, or something to be avoided, and what exactly should be suppressed and hidden. Thus, a sense of separation, lack, imperfection, insufficiency, and weakness was born and developed. Without shadows, there can be no light, and without emptiness, there can be no fullness. There are concepts that can only be lived and nourished by creating close relationships with other elements. This is the case with light and shadow, and so is the eternal dualism that characterizes these two beings. You might think that light and darkness exist many light years apart, but they are so intrinsically connected that they assume the existence of the other element.

Artist
Kemono Painter (kemono graphy)
There are mysterious powers in nature. They seem to be visible and invisible, and their existence is unstable, and I feel them and visualize them through my work I'm trying it out. The theme of my work is the world of nature, mythology, and the invisible senses. Patterns and colors that emerge when looking at living things from a unique viewpoint — these are named “kemonography (chemography)” and recorded. Produced at the atelier and gallery “Kemono” in Senmaya, Iwate Prefecture. Through exhibitions and exhibiting at events, I depict the harmony between fantasy and reality. In 2004, he had a strange experience (surrounded by pale light), and then began production activities after being unable to help drawing pictures. solo exhibition 2016 Kemono (Kemono) Gallery Chloe Kemono Shiroi Human Exhibition (SEA CANDEL COFFEE) Miyagi 2017 Kemono (Kemono) Gallery Noten Shizuku Exhibition (SEA CANDEL COFFEE) Miyagi 2018 KEMONO GALLERY in TAIPEI “Dumb Beast” Taipei 2019 Kemono Gallery: The Flesh of the Fierce Angel Iwate 2021 Kemono no Daichi Exhibition Iwate Group Exhibitions 2014 JADIF Selected Exhibition, Setagaya Art Museum, Tokyo 2015 JADIF SELECTION EXHIBITION SETAGAYA MUSEUM OF ART TOKYO 2016 JADIF Selected Exhibition, Setagaya Art Museum, Tokyo 2017 ~ Senmaya Honcho Art Festival Senmaya Honcho Shopping Street Iwate 2022 Cross Over Japanese Art Collective Bangkok 2023 INTERVENTIVE INTERNATIONAL ART EXHIBITION M.A.D.S ART GALLERY MILAN Collaboration (design, live painting, etc.) 2004 ~ Vol 11 Chalumnae 3D Fes Live Paint Miyagi Shana Rishana Rhythm CD Jacket Design Tokyo 2014-2015 painting exhibition.
